Entrevista
One of the worst interviewing experiences.
Recruiter scheduled phone screening interview without any description for what the meeting was about and wasn't able to provide any feedback after that.
After asking for specific feedback why they are not willing to continue the process, I received this "The decision is based on your interview performance, and tied back with our Leadership Principles and role requirements". So basically nothing.
Screening interview was a bit of a joke as well with the interviewer spending awkward moments writing down feedback and very text-book questions.
When I asked him about his role and why he is happy there was no depth in his answer.

Explain how you would build tinyurl system verbally
Scripted, for specific words. But that also makes it clear what to expect. Practice with the available stories and you are set. All questions are tell me about a time style so prepare well. The system engineering questions are straightforward but prepare to dig deep. Overall, so much info is available that with enough practice you should be ok
Strenuous and long. 2 pre interviews followed by 5 interviews in the day testing all competencies. Interviewers were great. The process was very long and unfortunately missed out to an internal candidate.

I applied online, got feedback via email that I was selected for 1st stage interview, provided available timeslots across next 4 weeks or so, then the call was scheduled. All well organized and professional.

Technical/academic questions that seemed to be not related to the role - but around my resume. I didn't like that the interview didn't match (at all :-)) their interview prep guidelines (no behavioral questions etc.) but I appreciated that Amazon designated a very senior guy to spend 1hr just on a screening call.
