Flew out for a three day interview process. Tried to show Amazon's "customer-cetric" company through an individual skills test then a group project and presentation while Amazon employers watched. Never heard back from them while everyone else in my interview group did.
Other Retail Leadership Rotation Program Interview Reviews for Amazon
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon in Nov 2013
Interview
Only had one interview - 45 minute phone interview with a category manager on the retail side, (kitchenware). He had a thick accent and was hard to understand at times, which may have led to a bit of miscommunication during the call. I kept having to ask him to repeat the question or statement. It was pretty straightforward, walked him through my resume and then was given a mini-case.
