I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Jeffersonville, IN) in July 2013
Interview
Apply online. They will email you to tell you if they would like to decline to interview you further or ask you to schedule a phone interview online. If you get a phone interview, they will send you another email either inviting you to an in- person group interview or not. At the group interview, you will be there with many other potentials. There is a big room with many tables, each with one interviewer and one interviewee. This will be your only in person interview. Afterwards, you are asked to wait till they are finished... be prepared to be there for several hours. They will split you into two groups and each group will go into their own room. If you walk into the room and there is a drug test kit on the table, you got the job. If not, you will be told thanks, but no thanks. If hired, you will have a little mini intro to the company presentation, fill out paperwork, and take a picture for your security badge. You will also be required to take an oral swab drug test on the spot. They will give you an official letter welcoming you and listing your pay amount. They will also tell you a ballpark figure on when to expect you orientation, be forewarned, it could be a bit. Mine was three weeks later. After orientation, which takes 6-8 hours, you will usually start the following week.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to be creative to meet a goal.
Was bare minimum. Just applied for the job through the app and then had to shore up to do the drug test. It was the easiest job applying experience I have ever had
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Dartford, England)
Interview
Complete an online quiz to sort coloured blocks according to some rules. You have to read the instructions, make sure that certain colour blocks aren't placed next to each other, for example
Easy interview process with questions about availability and preferred shifts. No questions about technical knowledge or competency. The interviewer was approachable and polite. Just be yourself and it will be fine.
