I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2015
Interview
Basic phone interview with one of the Ops Managers at one of their other facilities. Started out with him laying out the agenda for the 30 min interview. Then went into the 3 behavioral questions focused on motivation, leadership and I think development. After that there was a man power planning math question (you need X amount of product out, how many employees do you need to complete the job?). He then went over the Case question, which you have to complete in order to get the phone interview. At the end I asked a few questions about the company and that was about it.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You have 30 people working under you with 2 working indirect. Each employee can do 150 units/hour. Each work day has two 15 min breaks and one 30 min lunch. In a 5 day work week, how many total units can you complete? Follow up: 10,000 additional units need to be completed this week. How many additional employees will you need?
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.

Question 1
Conflict between coworkers, how would you approach resolving?
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
