I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Be ready to strictly adhere to the STAR method, there is very minimal creativity allowed. This isn't an exaggeration either, if you don't go into the interview with stories exactly aligned to the STAR way of answering questions, you can essentially guarantee you won't move through the interview process.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you raised the bar and went above and beyond in a work project.
I got contacted by a recruiter and then one interview with the hiring manager! That was really it because they were rushing to place someone, super quick and took about 2 weeks total.
I only got through to the first stage, where my experience didn't quite match what they were looking for. The next stage was a meeting with someone from their Sales department, and then there is a take-home task, followed by review and further interviews with more senior staff.

Question 1
Why do you think that you, in particular, would be better at this role than somebody else?
