I applied through other source. I interviewed at Amazon (Washington, DC)
Interview
Received an email from recruiter about 2 virtual interviews. Had to reschedule because I was travelling but she was very accommodating. Scheduled the day and time that worked for me. Received Jaber calls but the system was not working perfectly so they called on the phone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself and background. Tell me about a time where you had to dig multiple levels to find the root cause. How did you convince the people to cooperate with you. Tell me about a time when the whole group was against you and what did you do. Did you get into heated debate at any point, how did you handle that.
Tell me about a situation where you took a big risk and did something outside of your scope. What was the reaction of audience when you disclosed the bad news. Tell me of a time when you took a decision on your own without having to inform your authorities. Tell me about a time where you had to quickly glance through project and make a decision.
Case: Amazon Prime with $35 minimum spend has one deal for $8 to deliver within 1 hour and second deal for free to deliver within 2 hours. How do you analyze the strategy and make any changes if required.
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.
