My interview process began with an online assessment, followed by a panel loop of five consecutive interviews. The rounds focused heavily on the company's Leadership Principles using STAR-method behavioral questions, including a "Bar Raiser" to ensure candidates exceed the current team's average.

Question 1
All the questions were related to my previous experience.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC) in May 2024
Interview
I had about 3 calls with the company: first was with the recruiter to explain the hiring process as well as to do the initial evaluation, second was to practice and go over the following technical interview, third was with another program manager to talk about my experience and to evaluate if I go above the current average at Amazon.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself.
Tell me about a project where you had to oversee an implementation from design to delivery. How involved were you in the process?
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Brisbane) in May 2026
Interview
I applied online. After about a week or two, a recruiter from Amazon phoned me and we spoke for about 45 minutes. He was very pleasant to speak to, we covered some basics around the role and its expectations, and he laid out the next steps in the interview process, including the STAR method. The second step was a line manager interview where he focused on details of past projects and lessons / outcomes. The next step (which I didn't make it to) would have consisted of several interviewers asking different types of questions, and at this stage you don't need to satisfy each interviewer. I presume after this they give you a result. Much of what is documented online aligns with my experiences.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you had to resolve conflict.
Applied, Recruiter Screen then nothing. Not sure when I'll get a call back. The process seems super complicated. Will apply again now that I know what they are looking for.
