J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Seattle, WA) en mai 2021
Entretien
Recruiter reached out, informal discussion with hiring manager, online interview spread out over several days. Interviews consisted of:
* System Design
* Leadership
* Behavioral
* Simple coding
Most of the interviews were pretty standard. The leadership interviews were largely based on Amazon’s published leadership principles
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you felt strongly about an issue, but turned out to be wrong. What did you do?
Scripted, for specific words. But that also makes it clear what to expect. Practice with the available stories and you are set. All questions are tell me about a time style so prepare well. The system engineering questions are straightforward but prepare to dig deep. Overall, so much info is available that with enough practice you should be ok
Strenuous and long. 2 pre interviews followed by 5 interviews in the day testing all competencies. Interviewers were great. The process was very long and unfortunately missed out to an internal candidate.

Entretien
I applied online, got feedback via email that I was selected for 1st stage interview, provided available timeslots across next 4 weeks or so, then the call was scheduled. All well organized and professional.

Question 1
Technical/academic questions that seemed to be not related to the role - but around my resume. I didn't like that the interview didn't match (at all :-)) their interview prep guidelines (no behavioral questions etc.) but I appreciated that Amazon designated a very senior guy to spend 1hr just on a screening call.
