Entrevista
Step 1: I had applied for 3 Operations Analyst role in AWS located in SF bay area in early December 2020. Separately a recruiter had reached out to me on Linkedin and I told her about the positions I had applied for. She reviewed my resume and sent me pre-screening questionnaire.
Step 2: Once completed, I received an automated email to provide timings for phone interview. Within a day or two, I received the confirmation along with several interview prep resources.
Step 3: The recruiter was kind enough to have a prep call before the actual interview. We talked about STAR methodology, Leadership Principles, Compensation details, Job role, Skills, etc.
Step 4: Phone Interview happened in Mid January with a BA who works indirectly with the hiring team. The interviewer seemed to be not very friendly but I tried to just focus on answering the questions that were asked.
