Interview
Initially contacted by recruiter.
HR screening done through the recruitment agency.
Single round technical interview with Amex.
The technical and coding questions were fair. But interviewer had a thick accent and was impossible to understand or build rapport with.
Interview went well very straightforward questions. Nothing awfully complex. I really like how they structured everything. Looking forward, attempting this again in the future. very huge company with lots of opportunity.
