The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2011
Interview
Spoke with Amazon recruiters at a school career fair. Went to a networking event held by Amazon. Signed up for an on-campus interview online. On the day of the interview I received an email from the recruiter at 3 AM asking us to come twenty minutes early and bring a calculator. Amazon did not seem like a company that was on top of things. In the analytical interview the interviewer admit one of the questions was wrong. After the analytical interview I was to conduct a behavioral interview. The interviewer never flew in so it was instead conducted over the phone with a different interviewer. Overall the people were very nice but they did not seem very prepared. Also study the questions that other people have posted about the interview process. They asked a lot of the same questions and same scenarios. The math problem about work flow is word for word what is posted on glassdoor.com.
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
