Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Monterrey, Nuevo León) en sept 2014
Entrevista
The interview was purely online. The platform streamed videos with instructions and then I was requested to write my answers inside a text box or to record a video of myself redacting the answer. This interview was a filter to assist to an special recruiting event in Guadalajara, Mexico. The process was very transparent and easy to follow. My complain is that the online platform HireVue prompted me out randomly when I was already doing the interview and I had to test three different browsers to set up the configurations of cam/microphone before starting.
