Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA) en sep 2020
Entrevista
I was contacted by a recruiter to interview for a role for which I did not apply. Many instructions were included regarding the process and STAR interviews. I prepared for a tough interview. My interview was with someone in a similar role, not the hiring manager. I was also never screened by the recruiter first. I was asked the exact list of questions online. Since I was not qualified for the job they selected for me, the interview was not optimal. A year later I am still trying to get an interview for a job suiting my qualifications.

Pregunta 1
Tell me about a time you were faced with a problem that had several possible solutions. What was the problem and how did you determine the course of action? What was the outcome of that choice?
Interview process is challenging but expected as everything you need to know is available online. They will schedule you with 4 employees from the team or organization you will work with and 1 completely separated from your organization as a "bar raiser". No need to work to impress one specific person, know 12-14 differentiated STAR formatted stories by memory.

Tell me about a time you created a metric to identify a need for change.
Not great. Very first interview had no proper introduction to the role and was not with HR, interviewee went straight into a case study within 5 minutes. Didn't seem interested in my actual work background.
