Entrevista
Very long drawn out process from a scheduling a telephonic to a F2F. Very professional though.
Started with a telephonic interview from the hiring manager. Very broad question on warehouse management and space management. After two long weeks was told that I was to go through a second telephonic after a week. Second telephonic was also very broad with questions on designing highly scalable systems. After a week I was told I will be invited to a F2F @ Hyderabad. After another week it was scheduled. Met with all the higher ups including Director level and Sr. Management levels. Met with 6 people including HR. Questions were focused mainly on Web applications, caching strategy, scalability and failover management. In hind sight I felt that they were looking for very unique solutions for all those design questions. Something which is beyond established best practices. HR round was very pleasant with typical questions on people management, conflict management, difficult situations at work and how you would hire people on your team.

The interview process was a standard faang process. I also had to do a writing assignment. The recruiter did a good job of setting expectations. The interview followed the leadership principles well.
The recruiter reached out to schedule 5 rounds of interview with heavy stress on Amazon transparent principles on leadership and others. Surprisingly barring one, nobody turned their videos on during the interview in a way disrespectful to the participant. The interviewers looked very naive and never felt Amazon was a different anywhere. Sure to laxity shown and non transparent process, i lost interest midway and discontinued it. Average experience for a company brand like Amazon.

The interview process was very long and you need to prepare well for it to make sure you are aligned with all the leadership principles. Amazon takes it very seriously and they send you documentation on how to prepare for the interview
