Amazon For Business Analyst interview questions

Excessive time investment for a 12 month fixed term contract role. Initial contact via an Amazon recruiter who sent me the job description and then encouraged me to apply on Amazon’s careers site. (Some companies’ internal recruiters facilitate this step for you, but not Amazon.) Next step was a 90 minute phone screen. I questioned why the initial screen needed to be so long and was given an explanation by the recruiter (it included a technical test that the interviewers watch you doing). Ok, but most people can’t fit a 90 minute interview into a working day without having to take time off work. This was followed by a phone call to prepare me for The Loop - five hour-long interviews on the same day. The recruiter was very thorough with the preparation and there is a lot of online resources aimed at helping candidates here. On the day, it was actually an enjoyable experience. But at the same time very corporate and inflexible as the interviewers want to conduct the interview following the STAR method. Received outcome of interview about 2 weeks after the final interviews. Overall I feel that the entire interview process disrespects the candidate’s time. I think most people would consider the interview process unreasonable for a 12 month FTC role. I would be very unlikely to interview at Amazon ever again due to the excessively high time investment needed.
