Ciao Simone,

mi ricordo la prima volta e unica volta che ci siamo visti è stato esattamente all’Università per Stranieri e parlavamo giusto di libri! Mi ricordo ancora parte del discorso.. io ti dicevo che avevo comprato da poco un libro su Amazon.com sull’ITC, e tu me ne stavi consigliando altri utili per la mia tesi!
..che coincidenza sapere che stai guisto lavorando li!
e che piacere mi fa immaginarti a coincigliare l’utile al dilettevole.. (invece che rinchiuso in un auletta della Stranieri!)

io sono quasi 2 anni che sono in Messico lavorando per una ONG, e penso che anch’io finalmente ho trovato il mio campo! se passi a evangelizzare anche il messico batti un colpo, ok?

ci conto!
Aurelia

Simone, I just found your blog and wished I’d read it just two weeks ago before my Amazon interview…I am sure I didn’t land the position, I focused on what I thought Amazon wanted to hear about me, rather than sharing my intrinsic passion for innovation and ideas, like you brilliantly did. I am not going to give up, you’ve inspired me.

Thanks, and good luck as an Amazonian!

Congrats on getting into Amazon. You must be a rock star! And thank you very much for your detailed account of your recruiting experience on Second Life. I am going to share with my colleagues, via my blog (http://people-shark.blogspot.com/). I used to recruit for Amazon, now I recruit for Yahoo. You are in for some hard work and fun times. All the best to you!

Hi!

I’ve found your blog through Google’s Blog Search.

I’m in a recruitment process for Amazon too! Marketing job for Amazon Marketplace.
I’ve done my job interviews and now I’m waiting for feedback… I’m excited and it seems so long to me !

I hope I’ll meet you in Luxembourg.

Cheers,
Aurélien
