• A brief screening call with two representatives from Amazon EU Recruiting.

One representative was completely silent throughout the call, while the other asked a couple of questions related to Amazon's Leadership Principles.

There were no technical questions at this stage.

It was not a big deal overall.

• I should have received feedback within 2-3 business days.

The next stage was supposed to be a deeper technical interview.

In the end, they decided not to progress further with my application.

They were unable to provide additional feedback or information about this decision.

My first impression is that they are too picky, and you can consider your application unsuccessful from the very beginning.

Could you tell us about a difficult situation for which you found an easier solution?
