I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2022
Interview
The process is intense, but they’re very clear about what to expect at each step. The recruiters were some of the best I’ve ever worked with. Really empathetic, clear communication and you can tell they take pride in what they do. The loop process is intense and felt a bit cold and too focused on data rather than incorporating the values and who the person is. I really felt that the interviewers were a bit sterile and focused on getting things written down rather than engaging in dialogue to get to know me and my work. Ultimately they didn’t select me but I would have passed because of my engagement with the interviewers not feeling authentic and human. It obviously works for them so I want to ensure that doesn’t come off as a total knock. It’s just different than what I’m looking for. Otherwise, it was a breath of fresh air to have such organized recruiters and a transparent process. Really good job recruiting team!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The loop was extremely detailed and required a lot of data and specific information. Definitely not an interview that you can do without preparation. You’re also expected not to repeat examples so come prepared with at least 3-5 strong answers with data for each situational question you practice. Additionally, they expect you to answer in the STAR method.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Luxemburgo) in Oct 2021
Interview
1. Primary screening
2. Interview with Hiring Manager
3. Loop interview
5 rounds of interviews with people in the same field or general management which I found the innovative idea to check candidate's capacity in overall performance. (I was not prepared for this unexpected rounds)
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2022
Interview
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screening call, followed by a 5-round Loop that went into very specific work and project experiences, framed by Amazon's leadership principles. At each step of the interview process, I heard back from the recruiter on next steps within 72 hours.
