I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2024
Interview
I went through a grueling 6 round interview (totaling 6 hrs.). One interview one day and the 2nd day 5 interviews back to back with multiple interviewers during each single round. After the 2nd round, I contemplated just giving up because of the way I felt physically ill and uncomfortable during the process. I've been on multiple interviews during the span of my 15 year career, and have never experienced anything like what I experienced with Amazon. It was the most grueling and humiliating thing I've ever experienced.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time something went wrong, what were you doing, how did you deal with it…
Very intense. 2 phone screens and 4 45 minute interviews, known as the loop. The recruiter prepared me with much detail about what to expect. If you prepare, you’ll be fine.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Went through phone screening and never heard back even after reaching out to recruiter. It was unusual since they are usually quick on notifying you. I've went through a few interviews with them in the past.
