      Recent Grad Sale Program Interview

      13 Jun 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      I did two phone screens with Amazon. The first was for a Business Analyst position that I never heard back on (not even a rejection email... so much for professionalism, I guess). The second position was as part of their Inside Sales program for recent college grads. I heard back very quickly and they flew me out to Seattle to interview. It was also a very unprofessional interview. I sat in two conference rooms all morning long and that was about as much of the office as I saw. There was no tour of the office so I was never give a chance to really see myself there. Two of my four interviewers were incredibly grumpy and rude. In fact, one of them straight-up said that he only works there for the money. Another interviewer made an offhand comment about having sexist coworkers, too. Additionally, after flying me all the way to Seattle to interview, they didn't even bother taking me to lunch immediately following my interview, despite it ending promptly at noon. Rather, I was introduced to someone interviewing for the same position and told "You two can get lunch together if you want. Or not. Just save your receipts to be reimbursed." It was incredibly unprofessional, impersonal, and a little insulting. Amazon might be a cool company to work for on paper, but it was the most unfriendly place I interviewed with and I accepted a different job immediately after my interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked me all about the Leadership Principles. They identify the ones they think you best fit and then each interviewer asks you a series of questions relating to that Leadership Principle.
