Interview process was about as expected for an organization as large as Amazon. Maneuvering through the chain of recruiters and screeners took time, of course. The interview itself struck me as a bit brief/terse. Lots of behavioral interviewing questions, little attempt to connect the dots between them.

The interview process was a standard faang process. I also had to do a writing assignment. The recruiter did a good job of setting expectations. The interview followed the leadership principles well.
The recruiter reached out to schedule 5 rounds of interview with heavy stress on Amazon transparent principles on leadership and others. Surprisingly barring one, nobody turned their videos on during the interview in a way disrespectful to the participant. The interviewers looked very naive and never felt Amazon was a different anywhere. Sure to laxity shown and non transparent process, i lost interest midway and discontinued it. Average experience for a company brand like Amazon.

The interview process was very long and you need to prepare well for it to make sure you are aligned with all the leadership principles. Amazon takes it very seriously and they send you documentation on how to prepare for the interview
