Interviewing at Amazon is time-consuming and at times, drawn out. Overall, this interview process made me less likely to put in the effort to apply again.
I had to fill out an assessment based on working style, critical thinking, and how my values align to the LPs. Make sure you watch Youtube vids about this to ensure you pass. Afterwards I had a call with the recruiter and then I had to wait 3+ weeks to meet with the hiring manager. This took way longer than usual and I had some technical issues communicating with the recruiting coordinator (who is a different POC from the recruiter).
When I finally met with the hiring manager, I felt prepared answering the questions since a lot of the behavioral questions can be found online. I prepped by using the STAR format. I could have done a better job at emphasizing the results since the hiring manager did ask me at one point to reinforce what happened. In general, it was a standard 1hr long interview.
A day after that call, I was informed via email from the recruiter that I was rejected and that the hiring manager recommended that I apply for a level down, I disagree with that recommendation so with that said, it'll take a lot out of me to re-apply at Amazon.
