I first interviewed with Amazon two years ago, and I got no offer. It was a good experience but it just felt (both to me and to the hiring manager) that I interviewed with the wrong team. One month later, a different business held another recruiting event in the city where I lived then, which would have been a much better match, but whatever. Since then I've been contacted from time to time. I initiated the process with a team coming to Berlin in December. I should've known better and asked them right away about other teams coming in town later :) My mistake. Anyway the first message I got was slightly inaccurate about the job location, but I decided to give it a try. I took their automated online assignment (no, not the infamous proctor.io one they give to interns/entry-levels), did well (it was reasonable), then had a call with the technical recruiter and was left to set the interview date with the recruiting event coordinator. A couple days later, not one, but two managers from AWS contact me on LinkedIn to tell me about an upcoming recruiting event in Berlin. I reply to the first one, tell him upfront I started the process with another business team already, but that AWS would be a better match (given the job location, and I'm not going to lie, AWS are the cool kids and I like their products). He says there's no problem, I can cancel my interviews with the other team, and just transfer the process to the AWS recruiting event. So I tried to do that. The recruiting event is going on as we speak, I believe. I'm still waiting for the AWS technical recruiter to get in touch. I reminded the manager 3 times and eventually gave up. Sorry Amazon, I'm not that desperate. I'm not a fan of companies that have a generic interviewing process, no matter the team you're applying for. I think it makes sense that each business team is running its own recruiting pipeline. But come on, you can do a better job than that.
