I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2016
Interview
It was my first phone interview, I was so nervous that my mind went blank at the beginning. But the interview was very nice and patient, let me take time to think and reply. Those questions were not that hard, but I didn't follow the Leadership Principles, that's why I fell I think.
The interview was a great experience and offered valuable learning opportunities. The interviewers were extremely kind, supportive, and helpful throughout the process. However, I realized the importance of staying highly focused and precise, especially when delivering STAR-based answers. Accuracy and clarity in structuring responses play a crucial role, and candidates should remain attentive to ensure their answers align with the question.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Long interviews, mainly behavioral questions. Overemphasis on STAR-format answers. Cold and overly formal structure that feels artificial and soulless. No feedback if you’re rejected despite all the time and effort you gave them.
