Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di mag 2020
Colloquio
I got an email saying that I was selected to do an interview. I answered it and it took 2 weeks for my contact to arrange the interview. By the time they call me the position was already filled. I kept doing the process even though there was no position available. When I interviewed with another Vendor Manager he was really uninterested and just answered back in monosyllables. The interview was booked for 45 minutes and he only used 15 minutes. I guess they were not really interested from the beginning. I got a rejection email later. Asked for feedback but there was none.

1. Recruiter Screening
* Initial discussion about experience, role scope, and expectations
* Basic behavioral and background questions
2. Hiring Manager Interview

Useless leadership principles framed in behavioral question. Tell me about a time when
Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Toronto, ON)
Colloquio
You start with an online assessment, which is relatively easy. Then a recruiter reaches out to you if you pass and will ask standard hiring questions. After which, you will then have a phone screen interview and if you pass, you do an interview loop with 5 people. Which is insane for a role that does not pay 100K annually. They also make you go prepare 12-20 STAR stories that you should pretty much memorize.
