Interview
I applied for a position on Amazon on August 21. I was first contacted on September 21. I had 2 initial interviews and I got into the panel and had 5 interview rounds. Overall it was a challenging and hectic process. I studied the Amazon leadership principles and prepared an answer for each. Not all principles were questioned. I needed to use the same examples for some. I had a feeling that the written essay was not read by interviewers before the interviews.

Interview
I applied in August 2021. I was first contacted in September and the process was finalized in January 2022. I had a total of 7 interviews. 5 of them are included in the panel interview.
I was expecting all leadership principals to be questioned, however, 8 of them were questioned. Based on the job description the questions were very relevant.
They included ownership, insist on the highest standards, invent and simplify, deep dive. I did not understand who was the bar raiser.
I prepared answers for almost all leadership principals. For some questions, I used the same example and I openly mentioned it to the interviewer.
I felt that the written essay was not read before the interviews. And it was my best example so I used it in one of the interviews.
