I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Chicago, IL) in Sept 2016
Interview
I was first given a link to a personality and situational analysis. Then after passing that stage, I received an email to interview with them in Chicago. While in Chicago, the interviewers were rude, never made any effort to make us comfortable, just seated us in reception and didn't say anything to us until they absolutely had to. During the interview, the interviewer intentionally contradicted all of my answers and I was convinced that I wouldn't receive an offer but it seems like they need warm bodies for the position, honestly. The HR recruiters who were in the waiting area were talking about someone else behind their back, no part of it seemed like a place I would be happy.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.
