I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2020
Interview
I had three rounds of interviews: the first with HR, the second with an Amazonian with a similar position to the one for which I was interviewing and lastly with the Hiring Manager.

Question 1
The HR call was about my background and expectations. She guided me through the process and was extremely helpful. The second interview was two questions based on the Amazon principles - the person was very welcoming and also answered all my questions. Last step with the Hiring Manager was the hardest: three questions on the Amazon principles. The interviewer asked for very detailed explanations and it was pretty long.
The interview process involved various steps but wasn’t too taxing. You had to meet various people and chat to them about your experience. There wasn’t a task to complete or anything so that was a blessing!
After 8 interviews they told me they were inclined to hire me but just with a lower position. They said that they would have checked if possible and if not they would have made sure to find a position for me in the company. Well, they just ghosted me
All is about OLP. You should prepare about 10 episodes and assume OLPs you might be assigned, and associate with the episodes that match to OLP. It would be better to use different episodes for each interviewer, but you can use same ones.

Please tell me an episode that you have difficult challenges but you found the solution and overcame the issue.
