I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Bolton, England) in Jul 2023
Interview
First interview was very pleasant with the Amazon recruitment manager, asked my experience and said he was pleased with my work and hoped that the recruiting manager would be as he had interviewed and turned down many people. When I moved to the second round the recruiting manager was late, didn’t apologise and sighed a lot. I didn’t get the job but was told that my examples were good and that I should apply again in the future. Very difficult to learn where to improve from and felt the pressure going in knowing the recruiting manager had interviewed so many people and had been difficult for the recruitment team.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru)
Interview
For manager and above, once the recruitment team identifies a candidate, they are scheduled for interviews. Apart from a phone round, folks will typically go through 4-6 rounds of additional interview. It will help if candidates are able to structure their responses in SBI format bringing out strengths that align with Amazon leadership principles.
