An Amazon recruiter wrote me about a gig in Seattle. I wasn't interested in relocating but they were nice enough to forward to a recruiter near me. To my great surprise, they contacted me right away. We talked on the phone and had a good conversation. Seemed like a nice guy and he set up an interview within a week. Day of Interview, almost 20 minutes late I get a call. Apparently they hadn't provided the Interviewer a phone number for me. She finally realized it was right on the resume. She introduced herself and the team but said she couldn't tell me much as it is secret. Though I am pretty sure most if it is easy to figure out based on public information. Anyway, normal questions, tell me about yourself... strengths, weaknesses, etc. Then the question below. The upside is that it would be a nice commute for me. The downside is pretty much everything I have heard about working at Amazon. Still waiting to hear back. I'm not waiting around. The interviewer was poor. The recruiter made it more interesting than the interviewer did. I was not "sold" in the least on the team or the company. I understand they want to keep the project secret but there are lots of exciting things Amazon does that we could have talked about.
