I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Hamburg) in May 2017
Interview
I am posting here because I got tips from this page and I owe it as a duty.
I was contacted through linkdIn to consider applying for the position.
After the first phone interview, I was scheduled for the virtual panel. 2 back to back interviews
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
First phone interview asked questions like
1. Why Amazon
2. Why operations
3. Tell me a time when you showed bias for action e.t.c
Virtual panel interview
1. Asked me to tell about a time that I dived into data
2. The second question talked about Bias for action
The second interview discussed the role in more detail and asked me what I thought the role entailed. I had to describe my future activity on day to day basis.
I think my performance in this interview was fairly good. Unfortunately, I have been rejected from proceeding. Too bad I did not learn anything from this process and about how to improve in future.
Recruiter reached out to me and we set up a meeting, she was friendly. Had to follow up a few times to get a timeline of how things are going, but overall was a positive experience.

Assessment, written assessment, four interviews. It was a simple but lengthy process. You will interview with four different individuals, not a panel. So be prepared for a few hours spending 30-40 minutes each. Even if you nail one two or three, if one interview doesn’t go as smooth it can cause you to not get an offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Three part questions, and what did you learn? Even if your example was spot on with the situation task action and result they still want you to provide an explanation of what you would do differently. Be prepared for this question after examples for every interviewer. They want details and exact data and numbers.
