I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in May 2016
Interview
First a phone screen then a day of interviews - six 1-hour interviews, each with one interviewer (and sometimes another person shadowing them). You get a list of the leadership principles in advance, then in the interviews you need to talk about situations in the past where you've displayed those leadership principles. (Don't wear a suit - jeans and t-shirt are de rigueur).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All the questions are variations on "Tell me about a time when you ... [showed one of the Amazon leadership principles]".
Applied, Recruiter Screen then nothing. Not sure when I'll get a call back. The process seems super complicated. Will apply again now that I know what they are looking for.
HR Screening was scheduled. Then 1 technical screening phone interview was scheduled, followed by two Behavioral interviews, followed by two System design interviews, followed by 1 bar raiser interview. Lastly there was an offer.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2025
