I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Oct 2010
Interview
I contacted a military recruiter at Amazon.com through LinkedIn.com. He was excited about my background, and gave me the impression that I was a sure hire. I had a phone interview within 2 days of speaking with the Amazon recruiter, and progressed to the onsite panel interview. At the onsite interview, I was greated by a lady who gave me two problem scenarios to work through stating I had 20 minutes to complete them. After 50 minutes, I was taken on a walk-around tour of the warehouse by another supervisor. Following the walk-around, I was interviewed by two different supervisors. I had to present my solutions to the problem scenarios and answer typical questions. One week later I was contacted by another individual stating that they decided "to move forward with other qualified candidates such as myself".
Star Method and Leadership Principles. Just study these from the materials they give you, and form a story for each principle, and when they ask questions, you can see which principle they are asking about.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you faced a conflict or disagreement at work and how did you handle it?"
Multiple online tests after application, followed by a virtual interview with various staff. Staff did not want to be on camera and did not have many good things to say about working there.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
