I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderabad) in Dec 2012
Interview
Telephonic interview went smooth. Manager was straight while explaining cases over phone. Also, each question was meticulously prepared to test the candidates knowledge. Final interview with Operations head was really. HR discussion was tough. Salary was fixed and there was no change.
Overall it was good experience to face such a tough interview.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Amazon analyst interviews usually have four stages: application, assessment, phone screen, and interview loop. For analyst roles, you should expect SQL, data analysis, business metrics, Excel, visualization tools and Amazon Leadership Principles to be tested heavily.
Grilled me on my previous work experience, have to answer using their leadership principles using scenarios and examples. Took my technical assessment too and finally panel round. I think it's too long for what it is
2 rounds of interviews and 1st stage was all about techincal and 2nd round was about the HR round. Then got HR call. Mostly techincal Skills related questions were asked
