I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Sep 2011
Interview
Felt rushed during phone interview and that the interviewer was not paying attention to all given answers.
As opposed to a conversation which flowed naturally, it felt confrontational and was a negative experience.
If my resume was good enough to get to the hiring manager, questions of competencies should not have been a major issue.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you ever worked on CPG or financial products with any major agencies?
First I passed the assessment its not an easy one, next step is phone screen 1 hour interview, my recruiter shared helpful information; connect 12 LP's to your work examples using a STAR method, 2-3 examples per LP.
Process was relatively straight forward, I didn’t make it to the loop. What I can tell you is the recruiter will be overly excited about you as they are with all candidates. They’ll tell you, you can expect to hear back in two days for feedback. Truth is, if they reject you then you will not hear back within 2 days it will be more like a week. Silence means you aren’t getting the job, they’re very binary.

When did you make a choice no one asked you for? Why?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Luxembourg)
Interview
Good interview, reached the marathon loop of interviews. It was intense and quite focused on STAR stories obviously. Got some nice feedbacks as well to improve in case I managed to get another interview in a few months
