I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2021
Interview
Full loop interview which consisted of 5 hour long interviews. Before the loop I had a recruiter screen and and hour phone interview with a hiring manager on the team.
The interview process is made up from the leadership principles. Be prepared for a question from 8-10 leadership principles. You want to provide your answers in the STAR method, with each example having measurable impact.

The recruiter provided helpful preparation materials ahead of the interviews, including insights into the company's core competencies and values. Each interview question was clearly aligned with these competencies, which allowed me to prepare by selecting relevant work examples that demonstrated my experience and alignment with Amazon's leadership principles.
The process included four back-to-back interviews, which was intense and a bit overwhelming at times, but overall it was a great experience. It was not only a valuable opportunity to reflect on my past work but also beneficial in gaining a deeper understanding of the Amazon way of working.
