Has anyone interviewed with Amazon in the last 6 months. I finished my loop for a finance role. It’s been 8 business days and no update from the recruiter. I mailed the recruiter who said apologies for the delay but we will get back to you with next steps. Has anyone had this experience and what was the outcome Amazon

As we are in sales I tend to mirror the energy of the interviewer and try to match the vibe. This completely takes you out of control and the interview. I don’t like it.
Yep! I agree. Specially going for a sales role.
You don’t have the chance to answer questions or promote your company. Interviews don’t just help companies evaluate candidates; they also help candidates learn more about the company and the role. And this is best done through real-time conversations. If you use recorded video interviews during your hiring process, ask candidates to pose their own questions at the end of the video and answer them later. Also, opt for a live (either video or in-person) interview in the final hiring stages to sell your company and open role to your most qualified candidates.
Saves time at the price of authenticity
Imagine telling the dips**t sales leader who allowed this that you’re going to send prospects recorded demos/presentations
IMO, not all candidates will feel comfortable recording themselves. This could negatively affect their performance. That’s why one-way interviews shouldn’t be your only criterion when rejecting or moving candidates forward. Take their entire profile into consideration. If you’re unsure whether they’re qualified or not after watching their video, it’s best to schedule a call or move them to the next hiring stage. Give them another chance to speak about their skills and then decide whether they’re qualified.
I did one of those and I hated it. It takes the personal touch away. If they company can’t invest time to have someone actually talk to me. It’s not for me
I don't approve of it. That's a very inefficient way of hiring people. Whoever come up with this just gave a terrible idea.
I decided to not go thru the application with Lumen because of it.
I hate them!!!
My experience with video recorded interviews has been positive. I think they are an efficient way to get to know a potential employee and it can also be quite enjoyable as it is a lot more casual than an in-person interview. The shorter time-frame can be a bit of a challenge, but if you are prepared and know your talking points, it can be a great opportunity to showcase your skills and knowledge.
I think that video recorded interviews can be a great way for companies to get to know their potential employees. It allows them to see how the person reacts under pressure and how they communicate with others. I also think that it is a good way for companies to save money on travel expenses.
I think video recorded interviews where the company has a set of questions for you to answer in 2 minutes or less can be a great way to assess a candidate's ability to think on their feet and respond quickly. From my own experience, I found this type of interview to be more relaxed compared to traditional face-to-face interviews, as it offers more flexibility in terms of scheduling and having the opportunity to answer the questions with more thought. However, it's important to remember that you still need to stay professional and show your best self in order to make a great impression.
