Amazon Sr Vendor Manager interview questions

30 min discussion directly with the hiring manager who would be my superior manager via chime. She was new to the role and I had the impression she wanted to get more information about the business plan and strategies from my previous employer and how I worked on them rather than recruit me. She lost interest nearly immediately probably because she didn't receive what she needed for understandable confidentiality reasons. I also had the impression that the Hiring manager had already someone in mind for the role but wanted to get the info about my previous employer/experience. Having already had several interviews at Amazon I must say that interviews based on leadership principles are the stupidest invention of Amazon in the world. That ridiculous sticking to principles doesn’t mean they hire exceptional people and each of the employees is a true leader. Leadership principles from Amazon are a retarded idea and someone must tell them that. Some of the reasons for the success of Amazon (but of course not the only ones) are hiring cheap staff, competitive prices, and a convenient return policy. Regarding the interview difficulty, it's difficult for the only reason that it‘s usually annoying and tiring to repeatedly answer the same questions to numerous Amazon staff involved in interviews (min 45min each) who sometimes have no experience of the role you are being interviewed for and thus, don't entirely understand your examples. Those interviewing you are typing your answers like crazy all 45 minutes.
