I had a phone interview and an on site interview where I met 6 people. I applied to offer and also got a referral from an employee. HR called me quickly to set up a phone interview with the hiring manager a few days later. The hiring manager was nice, he asked me basic questions and also how I would implement a wine shop on amazon.com.
Apparently I did well because they asked to set up a on site interview. They wanted to move fast and see me before I left for the holidays.
I had several 1:1 interviews. and one of them with someone else watching and taking notes, in the later case, the person interviewing was nice but the other did not smile at all.
They all asked me questions about my experience with a focus on my data analysis skills.
The boss of the hiring manager was really not likeable and made me feel like I was wasting his time. He told me that he worked a lot and came to the office when it was dark, left when it was dark... that he had no work-likfe balance.
I also met a HR representative that explained some formalities, she seemed professionnal.
They told me they would contact me the following week, 2 weeks later, I still didn't get any news, I sent several emails to the HR I met to follow up with her, never got an answer, I called her (I still had the phone number from which they called me for the phone interview) but there was not even a voicemail to answer. Finally a week later after back and forth and being able to leave a message she called me back and left me a message saying just her name, her position at Amazon and her phone number and thank you. I knew at that point that I would not get the job, but they could at least tell me. Called her back, voicemail. She called me back and was very rude, She told me they considered other candidates, I said thank you for letting me know and she replied some thing like "hum hum". She was very rude and unprofessional.
Overall this experience doesn't make me want to work for amazon.com.
