Ironically, these don't apply to the recruiters and interviewers. Quite a few recruiters will talk to you as if they're the CEO of the company, and you should be obliged for their time. Some interviewers will lead you to a corner that they have been working on for the past 14 years, and expect you to answer correctly within 45 minutes.

@Al Knowing That's alright, recruiter arrogance is one of my filters. I wouldn't want to work for your company. You clearly demonstrate a lack of understanding of a healthy employer/employee relationship and since they trained you, it likely permeates the entire enterprise. Furthermore, as a recruiter, hiring decisions are not yours to make. Your job as a recruiter is to pitch the company as a great place to be and direct the suckers who believe your lies to HR for the hiring process. You're basically a car salesman. You don't do finance or sign anything important, you just caress the wood trim and coo "feel how nice it is!" If you sit there and talk shit about how I probably don't even deserve to own such a high class automobile and should simply appreciate having the opportunity to test drive one, I'm walking out.

And the people there are usually really nice. Of course you work 50-60 hour work weeks for 6-8 months a year, get fired for being away from your station for more than an hour a week(restrooms are a ten minute walk away usually), will be expected to work at ridiculous speeds (200-800 items per hour).

If you were you to blame you take the blame, if someone else was to blame you put it on them or say nothing. The worst thing you can do is get caught in a lie. This practice of putting a smiley face on every situation is just a measure of weak character. They ask questions like this to see how bendable you are to authority; which can come back on you in all kinds of ways, most of them bad. Be truthful and if they don't like the truth then you don't need to work there.

This kind of qualified check is the problem really. I know many HR types who come with a list of specific must haves. Thing is generally no one guides a person/employee into any specific way of behaviour. I've seen companies offer training, but when we get there it's more a job for the trainer than actually developing the individual. I think with the old apprenticships, a young person was accepted for being a noob, took extensive training and then knew what the job was. I've met people who claim to have the official qualifications but I can soon tell if they know what they are doing. Most just bluff.

ITheir questions are definitely not role specific and force you think outside of the box. I had 4 of 5 interviews today and I am left wondering if the company is worth my investment. They are very customer driven compared to all my roles that never involved working with customers but more internal stakeholders. The questions seemed to lean in more on stepping outside of your comfort zone to make decisions such "Tell me about a time when you had to make a decision without all information you needed" or "Tell me about a time when you invested in the short term that paid off in the long run" interview questions My position I applied is a non-managment role and from previous experience, there are guidelines to follow to ensure Compliance is maintained. The questions were outside of the scope of what I currently apply to my current role because we have to comply with government regulations. I have one more interview left and then they will deliberate on my candidacy.

@Doug Joseph You don't have to blame anyone, not you not someone else. Shit happens so be it. Think of how you can make it better next time instead of wasting time blaming yourself or others. Blaming is a waste of time, and if you blame yourself it's even bad for your feeling of self worth. Sure you can admit your mistakes, but thats it. Time has past you can't change it so work with it. There is also no Time for apologies as long as you admit your mistakes and think of a way to improve yourself with it, a simple "I'm sorry" is more than enough to conceal it. A company also does not own you, and is never perfect. You can and should search for ways to improve your work there and the work of others, preferably making yourself indispensable in the Process. If the Company does not allow you to make things better and if they fight against change. It's not a good company to work for and you should not waste your time with them. Move on there are more companies. From ass creaping you might get high in some companies, but not in the ones that actually respect you. More important than any degree is the skill of problem solving.

I didn't need to point out every bad thing that happened there, and there was a lot going on that was just shit. But who am I to complain? I moved on and I am happy now with what I got. I have no need to talk bad about them because It's in the past I can't change it. And I would just drag the negativity with me.

You won’t be able to last long if you put on an act... and you won’t feel comfortable- pretending to be someone else - so Amazon sounds like a bunch of stuck up pricks... and a skip ‘em! I’ve also walked out of “Skills Tests” or panels reading tech questions of a list... though I have stuck around long Enuff to point out how idiotic a printed question can be... Like “George, what directive should you use to keep a CURSOR current for set processing in SQL?” “The WITH HOLD option” “Good” “But I would never use it” “Why?” “Think about it, what more likely to fail, the Database or the Operating System? The Database! So what happens to the current value in WITH HOLD, it’s goes bye-bye” “Oh?” “And I’m done, if you don’t know the answers of your own tech questions then it would be a nightmare for me to work here...” that was Verizon!

just emulate bezos - without arrogance. imagine that you own a business. this is where most techies fail. tech skills are overrated. not all LPs are created equal. Deliver results / Ownership / Customer Obsession are most important. The rest - are just basic culture and class. Not blaming others - you should have learned from your parents. Candidates from lower social classes have problem with those.

It seems blaming others is not realistic yet in fact the truth is the truth...We are living in a world with negative growth.This impacts us all in some form.Not all people are compatible with everyone and we dont live in a perfect world.First rule of success is to be relaxed Get to know your team and that all takes time.Due to education standards varying from country to country from school to school from university to university all teach different communication styles and methods its whats important to your proffessor at the time.Understanding english is very different even in english speaking countrys and then theres different discourses from within the spectre of communication.That then depends where the human resource management learnt there communication .Many HR people dont even give proper job roles to the relevant degree studied.There is no one system fits all.Roles and job titles for doing the same role differs from company to company and country to country .

The larger the company the greater the concentrated incompetence, either due to lack of skill, or concentrated politics, due to insecurity, or sociopathy, due to an overinflated sense of exceptionalism. Stay away. Look for smaller companies where you will have more autonomy and visibility.

How would you define boring from Amazon’s perspective? That’s subjective and not data driven. I agree, with everything else. Silence and pauses are better than thinking out loud.

A person can be boring, but perform greatly and be a valuable asset to the company. Does it mean that Amazon is not interested- I don’t think so.

"Blame Others" not against this, but apparently, this is bad if you're an Amazon worker bee, but a-okay if you're the President, former Vice President or one of the former presidential candidates. It's also okay if you are part of the media (including the WaPo). In fact, much of politics is just people blaming each other. Funny how worker bees are held to a higher standard.

Solution: There are countless books and manuals available to train you (many on Amazon :) lol) to appropriately "understand" these questions on the "Employer Psych Test". SECRET: Most "failures" result from the applicant simply not understanding these fourth grade reading level questions from the EMPLOYER'S PERSPECTIVE. There are full explanations and hundreds of practice questions. If you do not use these readily available resources.....you may not "pass" these unusual tests. I believe that former testers write the books. Any investment in your knowledge is a great investment. Now study up for a few hours, be confident and go get that new position! Best of luck. You're welcome.
