I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2021
Interview
Phone interview with another EA at Amazon along with someone training to interview. 45 minute question/answer, did not really ask questions about me or my current role. Was not offered a second interview. I would definitely recommend researching the STAR method and utilizing it during your interview.

Screening call, five ‘loop’ interviews & HM chat. Loop based on Amazon leadership principles & STAR interview format. You receive plenty of information on how to prepare for the interviews which are back to back and 1 hour each

Question 1
Tell me about a time something went wrong, what were you doing, how did you deal with it…
Very intense. 2 phone screens and 4 45 minute interviews, known as the loop. The recruiter prepared me with much detail about what to expect. If you prepare, you’ll be fine.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Went through phone screening and never heard back even after reaching out to recruiter. It was unusual since they are usually quick on notifying you. I've went through a few interviews with them in the past.
