I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Apr 2016
Interview
Although the process is very buttoned up and organized, it is incredibly arduous. Be prepared for no less then 7-8 interviews.
Prior to the interview I had to write a brief on something significant I did at a previous company and the impact it had.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I thought the questions were reasonable and pretty basic. What makes you a good fit for this role. How would you handle a specific scenario etc.
