Amazon User Experience Designer interview questions

I had 3 separate interviews. In the first interview they asked more about my interpersonal skills such as how you work under pressure and such. They are looking to make sure you understand and know the Amazon Leadership Principles. Incorporating them into your answers indirectly would help. The second interview was explaining your portfolio pieces. They do counter-argue certain design choices you made and they want to know why you choose a certain side bar style, etc. Make sure you know your project inside out, especially if it's a project you did a while ago. Talk about take-a-aways and what you would do differently. Third interview was a design challenge (45 mins to explain your process).

Started with a recruiter phone call. He asked about relocation, notice period etc. he scheduled a call with a senior designer. I got into the second round where I interviewed with another senior designer. It was mainly portfolio review. Design decisions and thought process. In a week recruiter called up to say that I got into 3rd round which is the one on one interview at Amazon office. It was a full day interview. Started off with portfolio presentation, white boarding exercise and 3 one on one interviews with senior manager and product managers. 4th round was with head of design and senior hiring manager. Lot of behavioural questions were asked. Try to have 2 instances for all common behavioural questions. They dig deep with answers and make sure that you are explaining a genuine situation because multiple questions will follow. In a week I got to know that I was hired. Recruiter will call you only if they have any news to share. The entire process took some 30 days to complete. That was faster than Microsoft Make sure you are not making up projects and situations. You need to know your projects inside out. They will figure it out. Try doing some side projects and understand the industry. It will show your passion to the field and they like passionate designers.
