      Developmental Editor Interview

      5 July 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2013

      Interview

      After a phone screen, they flew me out to Seattle for in-person interviews with 4 different members of the editorial team. It was a 5 or 6 hour process in a dim little conference room, and someone had to escort me to the break room and/or bathroom when I needed water and/or the restroom. They were very concerned about what you would do if you couldn't meet a deadline, which made me think they are overworking their employees.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What would you do if you had half an hour until a big meeting and you hadn't completed your presentation?
