I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Montreal, QC)
Interview

Tell me about a time you had to deliver against a tight deadline.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services in Nov 2025
Interview
Mehrstündiger Leadership principle Contest mit wechselnden Gesprächspartnern. Wenig Interesse an mir als Person oder meiner Motivation. "Datengetrieben", aber nicht im positiven Sinne mach meinem Empfinden. Eintönige Gesprächsführung. Nur oberflächliche Einblicke in die Anforderungen der Position.

Question 1
Es gab im Kern nur eine Frage, die 6h lang in verschiedenen Variationen gestellt wurde: Welche Erfahrungen mit Leadership Principle X gemacht hat? Stumpfes Antwortschema, was anzuwenden war: STAR.
Es wurden währendessen viele "Datenpunkte" erhoben. Es hat sich angefühlt, wie in einem Labor. Als wäre man eine Machine. Sehr wenig persönlicher Austausch.
Das ganze hat sich insgesamt 6x wiederholt für insgesamt 1h. Zuvor gab es ein Vorgespräch, was aber im wesentlichen genauso aufgebaut war. Interviewer hatten unterschiedlichen Background.
Ich gehe davon aus, dass AWS hier noch deutlich effizienter werden wird und das Interview bald durch KI Avatare durchgeführt wird.
Insgesamt damit ein Arbeitgeber, bei dem ich mich niemals wieder bewerben werde. Absolut unmenschlich. Steril und wenig "innovativ".
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Atlanta, GA) in Oct 2025
Interview
I went from a recruiter interview to a one hour business interview in the next round to making it to the final round of 5 different one hour long interviews. I was not selected in the end.
In my opinion, it is not at all ethical or moral to not provide your interviewees with feedback after interviewing for a role. Especially after they’ve gone through consistently 5 hours of interviews (loops) with me. I interviewed a total of 7 times with 6 of them being one hour each. It’s a very big time commitment for someone managing there client work schedule on one end to go through several rounds of interviews. That is a bit excessive for hiring an engagement manager, I could see maybe for a CIO or a c-level role but not for non-people management positions. I found the worst part of the experience to be the fact that after the senior recruiter who I didn’t even work with emailed me to let me know they’re not moving forward with me and stated they are unable to provide interview feedback from any of the interviews and on top of that you have to wait 12 months to be able to interview again with AWS. I’ve interviewed for many firms and large fortune 500s, but this was by far the lowest experience I’ve had. Also I didn’t get a positive feeling about the culture at Amazon after my interviews either. It made me not desire to want to work for the firm.
