I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Aug 2019
Interview
Leadership Principle based competency questions are asked which is what Amazon believes in. Need to understand data and provide factual examples rather than hypothetical. Prepare as per Leadership Principles which the recruiter will provide and try to be yourself and it is okay to give examples of failure as it will help you to gain trust

Question 1
What learning do you have from each of your projects
The first step, the virtual interview process, was fairly long but easy to navigate and work through, and shortly after, I received an invite to interview in person. However, the location for which they reached out for was for the wrong state.

Question 1
Manager experience, scenarios where I had to act as a manager
Ghosted me after the interview, and they did not notify me I was no longer under consideration. I manually had to check the job portal to verify job application status after a virtual assessment and interview.
The interview process is very robust. You speak with many different people but they moved quickly. Some questions are out of the box and some are straightforward. Overall it was a good experience.
