J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon
Entretien
The interview was conducted by the hiring manager, using Chime (Amazon's own video call system) and lasted for ~50 min. We had several connectivity issues and at some points lost of connections from the interviewer. He spent some time talking about his role inside the company before moving into my profile or questions. During the whole interview he gave no feedback or conversational flow whatsoever. This together with the connectivity issues made the experience a bit frustrating.
