Amazon Business Analyst interview questions

Hiring process was long, but necessary. Seemed to be made up of 3 main stages. These consisted of, in order: 1. 20 minute initial phone screening. Probably just to filter out those who struggle with communication. Was conducted by one of the HR team, who was very accommodating and took the time to explain the role and what the interview process would be, should I be successful in getting to the next stage. I would take the time here to ask plenty of questions about the role, especially if unsure about how the salary/benefit system works at Amazon. 3 working days later I was notified that I had been successful. 2. 45 telephone interview. A more in-depth conversation, predominantly based on the leadership principles. Was conducted by a senior employee (Area Manager in my case). Talked through the role and some basic technical skills, such as excel/Power BI, followed by 2 situational questions encompassing the leadership principles. Again, I would recommend probing deeper into the role and responsibilities if there are any doubts/questions a candidate may have. 1 week later I was notified that I had been successful. 3. On site interviews, 4 x 45 minute face-to-face, followed by a 45 minute optional tour of the building. The individual interviews followed a similar structure to the telephone interview; some chit-chat about reasons for applying, some technical skills discussion, followed by 2 questions about the leadership principles. Following the situational LP questions, the interviewer asked 1-3 follow-up questions to get a full understanding of my actions and how these related to the principles. The 4 different interviewers were from different roles within the company, in my case 2 x finance, 1 x management and 1 x HR. 3 working days later I was notified that I had been successful. 2 working days later a formal offer was extended to me.

The process overall is good. The interviewer is nice and questions are fairly simple. I delayed the interview a little, and they are responsive. I did not get the offer, but may try latter.
