      Senior Technical Program Manager Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon (San Jose, CA) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me for Amazon Catalog team Sr TPM position. We discussed my skills and b/g at length to ensure there isnt any mismatched and in next few days I got a follow-up call for phone screen. My phone screen got rescheduled multiple times due to lack of interviewer availability and in that midst they possibly refined the job req for specific skill sets they were looking was. Finally when my phone screen was scheduled the interviewer on the phone was extremely rude and demeaning. He downplayed my skill set right from the start. I was putting up for good 30 min and patiently answering questions hoping it was just how he sounded on the phone. Towards the end when it was time for me to ask questions, I asked him about the role and expectations from TPM. Instead of giving me a good picture of expectations this person decided to grill me further on what i understood about the expectations from this role and what recruiter had told me. Pathetic to say the very least.
