Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 6 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Amazon (Seattle, WA) em set. de 2016
Entrevista
Applied online at Amazon.com. Got contacted for an interview about a month later. Started with a phone screen with who would be my manager. After about a week I was contacted to do a 2nd phone screen with the next higher-up manager. After some time, I was contacted for an on-site interview loop in downtown Seattle. It was almost an entire full day of interviews (with a lunch break).
The interviews were generally very relaxed. I was asked general questions about my abilities, why I want to work at Amazon and related behavioral questions.
Definitely know the Leadership Principals and tie them in to every answer if possible! Amazon lives and dies by those principals.
Finally I met with HR after about 6 or so interviews, and they explained the benefits and reviewed my salary expectations and explained when I would hear back regarding their decisions.
It appears that Amazon doesn't interview multiple candidates and compares them - they interview a single candidate at at time for a position, and then decide yes or no - then move on to the next one.

They asked a key question focused on both technical depth and culture fit: how you apply your skills to solve real problems, along with examples demonstrating alignment with Amazon’s leadership principles.

Entrevista
Interviewed for Business Analyst role at Amazon and honestly the process felt exhausting and impersonal.
The interviewers seemed far more focused on checking boxes against the 14 Leadership Principles than actually understanding the candidate or having a genuine conversation. Almost every question was another version of a STAR behavioral scenario, even when it barely related to the actual role.
The process felt extremely rehearsed and rigid. There was little effort to make the candidate feel comfortable or valued, and it often felt like they had already decided the outcome before the interview even started.
Technical and analytical depth barely mattered compared to how perfectly you could package stories into Amazon’s preferred format. If you don’t have polished STAR stories memorized for every possible situation, the process can feel unnecessarily difficult and draining.
Overall, one of the most mentally exhausting interview experiences I’ve had.

The basic STAR format, but the team was not clear about what they were looking for. The recruiter was not very responsive and took a long time to schedule the calls
