Amazon Content Manager interview questions

If Amazon wants to begin the interview process with you a recruiter reaches out to you via email to see when you are available for a phone interview. Once the interview is scheduled you will receive the call and you will be asked three or four different questions over the course of a half hour. These questions usually ask for a specific example from your work history, like a time when you had multiple tasks and you had to figure out how to prioritize or a time when you went above and beyond to please a customer. You may also get a hypothetical question where you have to explain how you would make it up to a vendor if you messed up their ad space or forgot to post their product during a sale. If they decide not to move forward with you, you will get an email saying so within a business week. If all goes well you will be brought in for the loop interview. A recruiter will call you and give you some advice specific to your department and will also begin discussions regarding your salary. When you go in for the loop interview you will meet with five to seven different interviewers, one at a time, who will each ask you three or four questions that focus on one of the leadership principles listed on Amazon's careers site. The interviewers like to hear specific data and numbers so the more detail you can get into without being longwinded the better. After your interviews are done the team gets together to discuss their notes and make a decision. Within a few days you'll get another call from the recruiter who called to give advice and start the salary discussion. They will either give you good news or bad news. Unfortunately, if it's bad news they are not allowed to share feedback.
