Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 1 dia. Fui entrevistado pela The Zappos Family (Las Vegas, NV) em ago. de 2011
Entrevista
I do not live near Zappos headquarters. So a hiring manager called me for a phone screen. After a few questions about my education, the kind of work I do and why I was interested in Zappos, the technical portion of the interview began - abruptly. "What is an interface"? How is the keyword final used? The questions were very basic, low level Java questions. What is encapsulation? What are the benefits to using interfaces? Some basic object-oriented design/programming questions.
The interviewer was a manager and he was not particularly affable.
Overall, I was disappointed. The website and videos on YouTube give the impression of people there being funl knowledgeable engineers. From the questions asked it seemed like they were looking for a book-read newbie that can recite full definitions off the top of their heads, but actual coding skill optional.

Standard, had to do a set of brain teaser questions within 45 minutes. Difficulty was moderate, one question was about data structures and the other was basic string manipulation. The interviewer was available for questions and guided me.

I was contacted by a recruiter based on my qualifications. I was sent a code challenge to complete over the weekend and then was scheduled for the culture fit interview. Once I completed the culture interview, I was scheduled for a technical interview with the hiring manager.

Entrevista
Got contacted by an Amazon recruiter on LinkedIn to invite me to apply to one of their offers.
We then scheduled a first phone call to talk about my profile and the position.
The recruiter never called and didn't answer my LinkedIn messages afterwards.
Complete waste of time.
