I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Washington, DC) in Jan 2022
Interview
This is not your typical interview, you must come prepared. Google search Amazon Principles and prepare a minimum of 3 STAR scenarios related to each. You will interview with a minimum of 5 people and it can become intense if not prepared.

Question 1
Each interviewer asked multiple questions, way too many to list, just come prepared. If you need to call others to ask for the insight on how you added value for additional STAR scenarios, this is the time.
Screening call, five ‘loop’ interviews & HM chat. Loop based on Amazon leadership principles & STAR interview format. You receive plenty of information on how to prepare for the interviews which are back to back and 1 hour each

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.
