The interview process, beginning with the recruiter was disorganized with inconsistent communication. I was given 24 hours to prepare something that I should have been given 2-3 weeks to prepare for because the recruiter forgot to provide me with the case study. It was only after I inquired that it was sent to me. The interviews lasted 9 straight hours in one day and culminated with a "bar raiser" that was a Sr. Engineer from a totally different part of the business. He started asking very technical engineering/coding questions that had nothing to do with the role I was interviewing. Ultimately, the "bar raiser" has full veto power and although I received 5 out of 5 reviews from every other person I met with, they had to pass. My friend was on that team and told me that they went through 40+ candidates in 18 months and couldn't fill the role due to the bar raiser process.

The screening person and the recruiter were very professional and helpful. The interview process required me to spend significant time getting ready. Process was well-organized. Both the screening person and the interview moved the process along quickly.

While AWS has a very structured process that they insist you follow, there own internal process and communication leaves alot to be desired. Some of the interviewers didnt even know what position I was actually interviewing for.

lengthy process with minimum 6.5hrs for intro interview and 'the loop' which consisted solely of very specific and detailed situational questions which might not apply to all applicants. so if you don't mind making up stories on the fly, I guess that's ok.
