I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2017
Interview
Was prepped to answer every single question around leadership principles. Hit it off incredibly well with the hiring manager in the first interview. The recruiter would only communicate via email and refused to return a call. I had a second over the phone and figured I didnt need to script as much, but I was wrong. Answer everything around a leadership principle and tie it to a number impact. Its unfortunate they dont hire someone that doesnt fit in their specific box because it is against diversity of thought, bias for action and agree to disagree. They probably wouldn't have roles opened for months if they tried something different. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and this wasnt meant for me, but I do feel bad that this team has been trying to fit the exact mold of something for 4 months and they are about to go down head too.
Interview questions [4]
Question 1
describe a complex project, explain why you feel it was complex and a deep dive into organizational behavior around this project
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.

Previous experience

Did a test task and was called by HR almost immediately for the next round. But salary range (full packet with stock and benefits) and return to office policy did nit much my expectations
very standard. the interviewers had a set of questions to ask about the LPs so we can anticipate beforehand. But I think I got ghosted in the end. One of the interviewers told me about the 2 & 5 rule but its been more than 2 weeks since my last interview and still no response from anyone so idk what happened.
