I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Three rounds of interview.
(1) Phone interview, very basic behavioral questions + going through your resume.
(2) Complete the given case in 24 hours. The case contains a spreadsheet that states revenues for different categories of Amazon's business (book, CD, online screening). Base on the number given, you will have to answer about how to optimize the total revenue.
Financial analyst intern, online assessment was based on leadership principles, look at the website for these. Excel and SQL. Probability and analytic skills. Choosing the best reply in different scenarios etc.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2026
Interview
Straightforward process:
1. introduction 2. Why Amazon? Why ads? + three somewhat complex BQ questions 4. a short case study 5. My turn to ask questions.
Prepare your BQ really good and go learn the LPs cuz I definitely failed that part and was confused by myself during the storytelling.
A Virtual Hiring Manager call to discuss my background, evaluate role alignment, explore expectations, and determine next steps in the interview process through a focused, conversational video meeting. Interview was pretty challenging, its important to have succinct examples
