      Business Analyst Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2012

      Interview

      Applied online. HR Manager contacted for a telephonic interview. 1. First telephonic interview consisted of mainly questions on why you want to shift from existing firm to amazon and were looking for fit. Few case questions on transportation, operational metrics and shipments scheduling. Lasted for around 45-50 mins and after that HR called to confirm for another telephonic interview. 2. Second telephonic interview was with a lady fresh out of college and had been working just for over a month with them. She was inexperienced with interviewing and kept on asking why amazon and why you want to leave you present job - for more than 30 mins and kept on badgering on same point again and again. I don't know when did leaving a job and changing profile became such an issue. Then she asked couple of case questions on logistics and package scheduling. She herself wasnt sure what to ask and kept on babbling majority of time. No reply and when contacted HR for update their standard negative reply arrived. Its a good idea to have discussion with your would-be peers but juveniles shouldnt be given opportunity to decide someone's career prospects.

      Question 1

      They asked a key question focused on both technical depth and culture fit: how you apply your skills to solve real problems, along with examples demonstrating alignment with Amazon’s leadership principles.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      Interviewed for Business Analyst role at Amazon and honestly the process felt exhausting and impersonal. The interviewers seemed far more focused on checking boxes against the 14 Leadership Principles than actually understanding the candidate or having a genuine conversation. Almost every question was another version of a STAR behavioral scenario, even when it barely related to the actual role. The process felt extremely rehearsed and rigid. There was little effort to make the candidate feel comfortable or valued, and it often felt like they had already decided the outcome before the interview even started. Technical and analytical depth barely mattered compared to how perfectly you could package stories into Amazon’s preferred format. If you don’t have polished STAR stories memorized for every possible situation, the process can feel unnecessarily difficult and draining. Overall, one of the most mentally exhausting interview experiences I’ve had.

      Interview

      The basic STAR format, but the team was not clear about what they were looking for. The recruiter was not very responsive and took a long time to schedule the calls
