A recruiter from Amazon reached out to schedule a chat on their platform. No names or details about the chat were included.

I expected the recruiter would be on the other side of the call, but the hiring manager was present instead.

We chatted about my background and the role. I then asked if he would be my manager. He must have misunderstood because he started giving me feedback instead.

He was nice, though, and said that my experience didn't align well (which I agree with). He also mentioned he would circulate my resume to other recruiters at Amazon.

Overall, it was an okay chat. However, it would have been nice to get a heads-up from the recruiter about who exactly I would be speaking with.

Tell me about yourself.
