Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I went through two rounds of interviews and got the position. Then, there were issues with headcount on the team.

It took over three weeks to sort out. By then, I had accepted an offer at a different company.

Granted, this seems to be an isolated incident. Most people I've talked to who work at Amazon went through a good hiring process, but this went terribly for me.
