Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'agenzia di reclutamento personale. La procedura ha richiesto 7 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Bengaluru) nel mese di set 2012
Colloquio
Very slow. Totally unprofessional. The HR called me and scheduled for a phone interview. Just before the start of the interview, she rescheduled the interview. The same thing repeated thrice. Then, I didn't get any call from the HR for 3 weeks. Finally I ended up attending 2 phone interviews over a period of 7 weeks.

1. Design a payment transaction system.
2. Performance improvement of a large website.
3. Given a sum, find the first pair of numbers that add the sum in an array.
4. Singleton patten. Issue with concurrent access. Over vs under locking.
Phone screen, 5 1 hour interviews for loop
Each hour was dedicated to 2 LPs. System design was more collaborative than i anticipated which was a pleasant surprise. The phone screen mostly focused on my previous experiences

Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Tokyo) nel mese di feb 2026
Colloquio
The interview process is straightforward but intense.
First interview was with another Software Dev Manager in the same team. After that the famous loop interview where I had to take 5 interviews in a row over two days ( using paid holidays at work ). Recruiter gave a lot of information about possible questions and helped with materials. However, I had to use same stories few times as the different interviewers asked same questions few times.
Everything is okay, I had a good time during the interviews and it was a good exercise. However, I simply do not understand why they have to call to reject? I am not a customer to be obsessed with. A straight cut rejection via email works better than taking time out of my busy schedule.
If they used this time to share some feedback, that would be useful. If they do not share any reason why I have to continue formal small talk just to get the rejection on my face?

A time you were driving toward a goal and realized more than halfway in that it may not be the best goal.

Had 1 round of System design interview. I thought the interview went ok, if not bad, it went decently well. Received a rejection response, while asking to apply 6 months later.
