I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2015
Interview
There was a math question which has been covered at length on glassdoor. All the other questions were behavioral. One person on the interview panel is a "bar raiser." This person will most likely push back on your answers to see how you respond. Just keep your cool and think through how you respond. They're not necessarily looking for the "right" answer, but they want to see how you think and respond.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us about a major project you led. What were the results? How did you go about planning for it?
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
STAR method is a must. very results focused so add what you contributed. had 3 back to back interviews that were quick and they spent most of the time reading and taking notes
