Amazon Senior Marketing-Manager interview questions

My recruiting and interview process was incredibly well done, albeit super long. From the time I applied to the day I accepted my offer was just under 3 months. My recruiter was timely and communicative, and upfront with the process and the type of questions I’d be asked. This, however, is not a mystery. They provide a ton of interviewing tips on their own website and there’s no shortage of videos on YouTube about what to expect. To say focusing on the leadership principles is important is an understatement. They are everything (and they really do live and work by them inside, too), and all the behavioral questions I got were anchored in the principles and answering them in ways to show I demonstrate them without giving inauthentic rehearsed lines on, say, how I love to “think big” and I always “deliver results.” I, personally, spent probably 70-85 hours preparing for all my interviews to make sure I knew my work examples and how they related to multiple leadership principles. If you don’t prepare they will certainly know, just being able to give a STAR response won’t be enough and they still believe they’d rather have a position be left vacant than filled with a bullsh*t artist. Lastly, I would highly encourage you to be yourself. They are looking for someone who will contribute to Amazon at large, not just the role, and in order to know that they have to understand holistically who you are and what you’re like to envision if you’ll have a career there.
