I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in July 2016
Interview
Nerve Racking to some degree, but generally easy (for me)
- Consisted of a presentation
- "Loop" interview with bar raiser
- No input or temperature check possibilities of how interview is going.
- Very one-sided, where you do most of the talking (as with most interviews)
Preparing for an interview at Amazon is a must. Self Reflection is integral at successfully interviewing and connecting those business experiences to the leadership traits. Generally if you can sell yourself you will do fine.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostly behavioral and scenario type questions with exploration of scenarios and incorporating leadership traits.
Great management, it was a walk in drive and the HR team was able to manage everything well. Enjoyed the process.
All the best to everyone going for the interview.
fairly easy. phone then hiring manager. took a few weeks to hear back and didn’t get the job unfortunately. i will keep trying! amazon is a great company and i think i just need a bit more experience.
1 Phone screen, 4 loops of behavioral interviews. A bar raiser is involved in one of the 4 loops. They respond back in the same week regarding the next steps / feedback
