Amazon Sr. Marketing Manager interview questions

Two 45-minute phone screens (hard-core behavioral questioning from future colleagues so be ready to dive deep). After passing the screens, I was brought in for the in-person loop and asked to complete a a writing exercise. I'm not sure if the team reviewed it, however, as one of the interviewers asked me the same question that was asked in the writing exercise (he said he hadn't read it). I put a lot of thought and effort into this so I was a bit disappointed by that. I had to turn this in a couple of days before the in-person loop. At the last minute, shortly before my in-person, I was told the position I had been talking to the team about was no longer open, so I was put into consideration for two other roles. I was cool with this, as they aligned well with my background and interests. To prepare for both the phone screens and in-person loop, I spent many hours studying up on the Amazon Leadership Principles and made sure I came prepared with data points on my work. Minimal questions were asked about strategy on how you would approach the role itself (i spent hours studying the competitive space and marketing strategies I would employee, but not sure that was even necessary). It's all about what you've already done. During the in-person, two of the six interviewers did not look up from their laptop hardly, since they were rapidly taking notes. Unfortunately, all this prep did not work out in my favor because I did not receive an offer. I was incredibly discouraged not getting an offer, as I thought I had hit it off with the team and would be a great fit for the Amazon culture, not to mention the roles I was up for. Sometimes the job hunt process has these type of low-moment setbacks. This was one of them - and right before Christmas. I was told to keep trying with other roles at Amazon that might be a better fit. Unfortunately, Amazon has a no-feedback policy, which is a bummer since data is truly front and center and would be helpful in approaching the process, moving forward. My advice- definitely keep options at other companies in the pipeline if you are going through the Amazon process, I put all my eggs in this basket for a month and regret that. It was not a slam-dunk despite my meticulous study, connection with the team, smarts, broad marketing expertise, and genuine belief that I was an ideal fit. I won't give up though!

Habe circa vierzehn Tage später eine Email mit einer Einladung zu einem Mathematik-Test erhalten und diesen innerhalb von fünf Tagen ausfüllen müssen. Circa 18 Fragen in 20 Minuten. Nach bestandenem Test drei Telefoninterviews. Dann erfolgte ein vor Ort Gespräch.
