Ep12 - The Only Rules Are The Ones You Set For Yourself with Charlie Kunken, Finance Manager, AWS

Charlie Kunken & Sid Dhodi, Finance At Amazon

“THERE ARE NO RULES, ONLY THE ONES YOU SET FOR YOURSELF.”

Today Sid and I sit down with…ourselves. Sid flipped the script and peppered me with a few of the typical questions we usually ask our guests.

We chat leadership, hacking the Amazon recruitment process, and a little story about driving to the Arctic Ocean from New York via Mexico.
