I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Orlando, FL) in Oct 2018
Interview
Connected with recruiter through college job fair. The recruiter then emailed me the next steps before interviewing with consisted on completing an online assignment (very easy). Two days later they concated me again to schedule a in-person interview in Orlando and was offered a car rental and hotel accommodations. The interview was two hours long, two 1:1 interviews with two different managers. One is a case study question and the other where behavioral questions. One of the managers did not show any enthusiasm at all, but the other interviewer was pretty great. I heard about the offer about a week later.
Star Method and Leadership Principles. Just study these from the materials they give you, and form a story for each principle, and when they ask questions, you can see which principle they are asking about.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you faced a conflict or disagreement at work and how did you handle it?"
Multiple online tests after application, followed by a virtual interview with various staff. Staff did not want to be on camera and did not have many good things to say about working there.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
