I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2010
Interview
4 interviewers at stations, with one "bar-raiser" to ask the difficult questions. Although I thought all interviewers had a similar level of difficulty. Most of the questions were analyical--Amazon is not interested in soft questions about your life, and is not interested in the way you dress for the interview either. The analysis was very scenario-oriented: say Amazon is facing a finance decision; what steps would it take?

Question 1
What sorts of costs does Amazon face as an online seller of goods?
OA assessment was non-technical, it was about you responding to different stakeholders and aligning their processes. After passing the OA, had 3 back to back 45 minute, non technical interviews.

Name one time you worked on a team and you had to overcome a challenge.
two round interview process with potential hiring managers, everyone was kind and informative. i enjoyed speaking with everyone i met and applied for the rotational program. mostly behavioral questions, helps if you can explain why tech and why finance
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
Not that difficult. Assessment online followed by two interviews. Very nice and friendly people. Was surprised by simplicity of Excel questions. It was all quite rudimentary stuff. Think you should give it a go.
