J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 6 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Entretien
I was referred internally by a friend to begin the cycle. About a month after submission, I heard from the recruiter to schedule a phone screen with the hiring manager. Hiring manager asked a few general questions about my experience and one specific behavioral questions about a time when I had to be innovative. The hiring manager asked me to speak with her boss (20 mins on experience, strengths, and weaknesses). I was then scheduled for my loop in Seattle about a week and a half later.
The loop is a tiring 6 hour process where the focus is on behavioral questions meant to draw out experiences related to Amazon's leadership principles. I spoke with 6 interviewers back-to-back-to-back all of whom were assessing my strengths against different leadership principles. The loop is certainly an exhausting process. However, if you prepare and have good stories from your background focused on Amazon's Leadership Principles, it is a manageable process.
I heard from the recruiter 3 days later that the team was impressed with my interviews, and were extending an offer.

Entretien
1 hour phone call with 2 questions that they want answered in STAR format. Then moved to Loop interviews where 5 members will interview you. Some ask 1 question and dig deep with several follow up "probing" questions. Others might ask for 6+ STAR stories. Intense across the span of a day but everyone is very kind, professional, and informative. Overall a very well outlined process that you are prepared for via email with your recruiting team.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell me a time you used customer insights to inform a decision. Tell me a time sacrificed immediate wins for long term strategy. Tell me a time you simplified something other didn't see.
Interview process was long with several rounds at each level. I did feel prepared for each round as the recruiter I was working with was great at preparing me for each stage. Only reason I'm marking this as a poor overall experience, is at the offer level it felt like a bait and switch. I was incredibly transparent about my salary needs. The person that presented the offer was not the same recruiter I worked with throughout my process - it was significantly under my bottom line, and I was dismissed when I made an effort to negotiate. If comp was not a fit, I should have been told that from the start, as to not waste mine and everyone elses time.
