Question 1

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2021
Interview
My biggest complaint is that they did not review the writing sample prior to the interviews. I spent 6 hours on interview calls on Chime. At the end, I was told my writing sample was not good enough. I wasted way too much time. They should have done this prior to the sessions.
