Before Amazon was as big as it is today, they approached me for a position. I had three different 1 hour interviews, then I found out they still expected me to fly to Seattle for 3 full days of interviews. I told them I was not interested. Before I knew much about corporate America, my gut told me that was a bad sign. Glad I listened.
During the pandemic, interviews seemed to have endless rounds of ridiculous questions. There needs to be a law that interviewers need to pay you at the position’s rate for anything beyond 2 hours. It would eliminate so much bullshit.
They’re not trying to hire talent. They’re trying to hire people who will do whatever you tell them to do.
