I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Aug 2022
Interview
After applying online, I heard back around after 3 weeks and had all the phone and onsite interviews in the following 3-4 weeks. Most of the questions felt behavioral, and I tried my best to apply the leadership principles. I also had at least 2 personal stories ready for each LP. Flagship Amazon PM interview course from Product Alliance helped a lot with my structure and what to expect from each of the interviews — thanks to that, I felt prepared for the interviews, which I think helped a lot with my performance.

Manager contacted me, hopped on a call. Connected me with a recruiter. Recruiter sends me a ~150 page booklet to read before the next interview. I don’t read it. Made it past next interview. Failed next call. Too much effort
