I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Kraków) in Oct 2016
Interview
Hiring event. 4 sessions - 50 minutes each.
The interview process was prepared very professionally, recruiters where very helpful and informative. But although I liked the interview experience, I see some deficiencies.
- I didn't like that at each interview session i was asked similar behavioral questions, if consider it as unnecessary duplication. Therefore I had too little time for technical task.
- Poor, only yes\no, feedback. I have no idea why i didn't get the offer.
- Coding on whiteboard is hard ;)
