Work at Amazon, Google and the USA: personal experience of Evgeny Kim

A week ago we recorded a podcast with Eugene Kim , Software Engineer at Google. Evgeny has a great experience of working in the USA, which he shared. We talked about how to get interviews in Amazon and Google, how to go through several stages of the interview, what to consider and teach, what skills are tested and whether soft skills are important. Evgeny's personal experience will be useful to everyone who would like to work remotely or move to the USA.

We attach a video version if it is more convenient to watch and listen.
