I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Sept 2014
Interview
After the application, I was contacted by email to set up an appointment for a phone interview. The phone interview was some standard information about how previous job experience and education relates to the job. Then there is another email talking about an in person interview. These are done in larger groups, for a tour of a facility and individual interviews with 4 different people. Each interview lasts for about 30 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked specifically about what I would do if someone I was supervising was falling behind.
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
