Software Engineer Interview Experience - Cape Town, South Africa

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through another source. The process took 3 months.

A member of the internal team (Kumo) reached out on LinkedIn and told me a recruiter would reach out. The recruiter did, but over a month later. The process just seemed to be dragging at each stage with late replies each time I asked. Eventually I gave up, but my application still shows under consideration on Amazon jobs.
