The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Sep 2011
Interview
Applied online on career web site then, I was contact by a recruiter one week later to set up a phone interview which consisted of questions about my resume and some lean management questions. Then, I had a second phone interview with a Sr. Operational Manager that consisted of questions about processes improvement and safety. Now, I'm schedule to have an on site interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What type of processes improvement have you made at work?
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
