I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2024
Interview
When first applying you take an assessment that evaluates your basic math skills and personality traits. If you do well enough on this assessment a recruiter will contact you to set up an interview date. the interview is very straight forward, You talk to three different people who are managers at Amazon and they ask you mainly behavioral questions based off Amazons leadership principles. It is very important that you study the leadership principles and relate them to your previous experience as this is exactly what the interviewers are looking for, it is also important to ask questions about the job. overall it was a super easy process compared to the other interviews I have been in that had had multiple rounds of interviews this one was three 15-20 minute interviews back to back, I also got the feeling that I was not competing against other people for the job as Amazon is a massive company that is always hiring, It felt like as long as you had previous job or school experience that you cold relate to a couple of their leadership principles you would have a pretty good shot at the job (I graduated college in may 2024 and I had previous experience in a warehouse environment which probably helped).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you fix a situation in which an employee was breaking safety protocol in order to get work done faster. (This was the one of the only questions I was stumped on and it seemed like other people on this site got a similar question so definitely have an answer to this).
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Conflict between coworkers, how would you approach resolving?
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
