J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon en mai 2024
Entretien
Company does not value candidate time. Interviews were rescheduled multiple times. Round 2 was 6 hours of interviews. All questions are STAR and follow up questions are asked on each question.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you were faced with a problem that had a number of possible solutions. What was the problem, and how did you determine the course of action? What was the outcome of that choice?
Interview process is challenging but expected as everything you need to know is available online. They will schedule you with 4 employees from the team or organization you will work with and 1 completely separated from your organization as a "bar raiser". No need to work to impress one specific person, know 12-14 differentiated STAR formatted stories by memory.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you created a metric to identify a need for change.
Not great. Very first interview had no proper introduction to the role and was not with HR, interviewee went straight into a case study within 5 minutes. Didn't seem interested in my actual work background.
