I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Fort Worth, TX) in Mar 2014
Interview
Intial interview by phone with recruiter. Important that your responses have $$$ or improvement stats attached to answers. The following week, I was invited for a 30 minute tour of facility. Following the tour, I was interviewed 1:1 with four managers (HR, Regional Ops. Mgr and 2 facilities managers). Most of the questions were behavior questions, and you are expected to provide specific examples from your prior or current roles. I had one manager ask me if I have ever worked for an A-Hole (too funny). We all have so I answered yes and then explained how I managed the relationship and improve the situation.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I expected the question "name a time when you had to work with ambiguity, what did you do?". However, it was phrased "name a time when you had to make a decision with little or no information". I guess I got stumped after being there for five hours..my fault!!!!
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
