I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Apr 2015
Interview
Submitted application. Then set up a Telephone interview. It's just as everyone had said. Behavior questions. Had to edit three weeks before the on/site "POD" round robin session. Meet w two site managers, an HR rep and then a Senior Manager. Day started by making us wait 45 mins at the gate. Once an local HR person clocked in they brought us in and the site manger have a tour. He also was a person who interviewed us. They said 45 mins but really they couldn't be to bothered, so they asked two token questions and then listened to them talk about generic stuff to kill time. Tell me about a time you disagreed with your boss and had to implement a process that you didn't agree with. Along with the others you have read here. Really they seemed like they had all the POD session down. It was just when interacting w real people did they seem out of sorts.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with your boss and had to implement a process that you didn't agree with.
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
STAR method is a must. very results focused so add what you contributed. had 3 back to back interviews that were quick and they spent most of the time reading and taking notes
