Interview was very much interactive and interviewer questions are related to much logical thinking and solutions for business impacting problems. More questions are related to amazon principles and it was a fun and friendly interview with good feedbacks.

1. Application & Screening • You apply online or through referral. • Recruiter screens your CV for catalog/domain experience (data management, content operations, SQL/Excel skills, stakeholder handling, etc.). ⸻ 2. Online Assessment (if applicable) For many catalog roles (including senior-level), Amazon may give an online test: • English grammar & comprehension – checking language and editing skills. • Analytical/Logical reasoning – short puzzles, pattern recognition, or numerical reasoning. • Excel/SQL basics – ability to handle catalog data, run queries, or use pivot tables. ⸻ 3. Phone Screening / First Round Usually with a hiring manager or senior associate. Focus: • Understanding of catalog operations, content quality, defect identification. • Experience in handling high-volume data with accuracy and speed. • Amazon’s Leadership Principles (LPs) (like Ownership, Deliver Results, Dive Deep). Expect behavioral questions framed around these. Example: “Tell me about a time you found a process gap and fixed it.” ⸻ 4. In-person / Virtual Interviews Typically 2–3 rounds, including: 1. Operations/Domain Round • Catalog workflows, metadata enrichment, taxonomy, handling escalations. • Use cases: “How would you identify and fix a duplicate product issue in the catalog?” • Quality vs. productivity balance. 2. Technical Round (Excel/SQL) • Excel: VLOOKUP, Pivot tables, conditional formatting, data cleaning. • SQL: Select, Joins, GROUP BY, filtering. Usually basic to intermediate queries. • Sometimes case-based: given a dataset, find anomalies or summarize. 3. Behavioral Round • Purely LP-driven. STAR format (Situation, Task, Action, Result). • Scenarios on teamwork, handling pressure, improving processes.
