I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services in Jul 2022
Interview
Overall the process was very disorganised and chaotic.
After applying online, I was contacted by a recruiter who explained the upcoming process to me with consists of in total 7 different rounds!
Then I had to provide dates & times for interviews.
These were rejected and I had to provide them again.
Despite a large range of dates & times, they were rejected once again and I had to yet again go through the process.
By now, several weeks had passed and I had dealt with 3 different recruiters.
By this stage I really had a bad impression of them and believe that the process actually drives away talented people who can find a new position much easier.

Tough 5 stage loop, but the key is if you find you are enjoying the 5 back to back 45min interviews, you’ll probably fit in. All about Earn Trust and Customer Obsession
