I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Austin, TX) in May 2021
Interview
Phone Interview followed by Final Loop Interview, 4 hours with 6 people. The first interview is casual. They allow you to speak without limitation (so don't ramble), asked 4 questions. The loop is a list of behavioral questions. Have an assortment prepared /memorized. 1-2 minutes, action item bullet points, quantify the hell out of it. I don't think enough people talk about the follow up questions after the STAR formatted story. They grill you - interrogation style - over each story you shared. It easily stops being a behavioral interview and a means of gaining business intelligence. I replied "it's proprietary information". How's that for backbone Amazon? Maybe that's why INTEGRITY isn't one of their Leadership Principles.
Initial online screening test followed by 1 phone interview (only the name is phone interview, it as on Zoom with the camera on). If you pass the phone interview, there are 5 following interviews in the loop.
