Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'altra fonte. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Singapore) nel mese di giu 2014
Colloquio
it started with a phone call interview, no technical questions, just basic fit questions. Next was the actual interview. I went to a hotel and had a room to myself. 5 different interviewers came into the room one after another. Each interview was about 20 minutes long.
They asked a few basic technical questions like integer and strings. The rest were more on situational questions and how I ran my team in my company. They were looking for people who were smart and willing to challenge conventions to get things done.

Did you ever go against your boss to do something right?
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

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?

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.
