I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Austin, TX) in Mar 2016
Interview
First round was in December. Second was in late March. Communication was poor and I will not accept the offer since I got another while waiting. The interview was not that hard and I would not have minded accepting.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2026
Interview
Straightforward process:
1. introduction 2. Why Amazon? Why ads? + three somewhat complex BQ questions 4. a short case study 5. My turn to ask questions.
Prepare your BQ really good and go learn the LPs cuz I definitely failed that part and was confused by myself during the storytelling.
A Virtual Hiring Manager call to discuss my background, evaluate role alignment, explore expectations, and determine next steps in the interview process through a focused, conversational video meeting. Interview was pretty challenging, its important to have succinct examples
