I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2019
Interview
I received an email from a recruiter to supply them with good times for an interview. Interview started off with the Senior ID introducing herself, then continued with STAR technique questions.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
If someone introduced a new Amazon device to you, how would you assess if training is needed?
If someone came to you with a new product, and there are no experts on the product, no one knows or has knowledge about the product, there are no SME's, how would you assess that training is needed? And what would be your design process.
The interview was somewhat tedious and very long. I had meetings with different profiles and had to prepare for the interview following their STARS model. While it was useful to have a written methodology, the process was very tiring because they gave you information in dribs and drabs and without a detailed description of the conditions.

Skills, kpis measured and challenges i encountered.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Las Vegas, NV)
Interview
The interview was very awkward because they had someone with no experience or knowledge of the role conduct it. I felt like they had trouble understanding the key concepts of the role and were looking for metrics, which are more measurable/important for a finance role (their field). The overall Amazon interview experience is very…corporate… to say the least. You really interact with automatic emails and schedulers more than the recruiter.
I never got a denial. I just never heard back and eventually got a survey to rate the phone interview with experience.

Question 1
I don’t remember but it was about their leadership principles.
The process went great. They gave you enough information to prepare ahead. However, there were a lot of questions, so you need to prepare extensively. There were both behavioral questions and portfolio review sessions
