Me postulé en línea. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Wellington, ) en jun 2017
Entrevista
The interview questions are really very tricky. All technical questions are very basic, and they will only ask what you are familiar with. But the behavioural questions drove me crazy. They intend to know everything about your past according to their leadership principles. But the thing is that's not possible you had met every situation what they need to know. And I don't think this kind of test will really help to filter their potential candidates.
