I just read on reddit that amazon new grad is doing 30min virtual interview as the final round. Is this a joke? Is amazon just experimenting with random ways to interview?

That being said, from my friends who interviewed there + the ones currently at amazon, it kind of looks like amazon is moving towards a mass hire, mass pip & fire model. People across a lot of mediums the past few months have been complaining/commenting on how amazons hiring bar seems to have dropped. From what I’ve seen/noticed, it looks like their entry level is just becoming a game of volumes, with just hiring a ton of people, then pipping those who don’t make the cut within 2 years.

But hey, they also pip mercilessly so I guess they figured it’s okay to incur this opportunity cost.
I think if you do well on OAs you get this invite. A group coding exercise onsite otherwise.
