I applied through other source. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Aurora, CO) in Sep 2025
Interview
Took the interview since my current position is being closed. It's all subjective and depending on a single persons opinion with no feedback or reason about the result. It's terrible to lose my job in such unprofessional way. There is no way to escalate this decision either.
The first interview was with a senior engineer. Then had a phone call with the HR. Lastly had an interview loop with three people: each people is 45min. One of them is plc fiddle test.
