Entrevista
I applied online and ultimately interviewed with three teams over the course of two months. I moved onto a different department after being rejected from the previous dept. I only received an offer from the third/final dept. (because I learned as I went and got better at interviewing).
Here are my tips:
-know the Leadership Principles (watch YouTube videos, read articles/blogs, etc.)
-brainstorm stories from your career
-use the STAR method in your answers
-show quantifiable results in your stories
-write down the question so that you can circle back to it/make sure you answer it fully
-only use the same story twice in the course of the 5-interview day
Tell me about a time you were halfway to meeting a goal and unaccounted-for difficulties/consequences came up and you had to pivot. How did you handle it?
Tell me about a time when you strongly disagreed with a peer or a manager on something you considered very important. What was it and how did you handle it?

I was prepared to go through “the loop” but my god it was exhausting and their insistence on the STAR response method felt forced, led to contrived answers on my end, and honestly felt a bit outdated. It was six straight hours of being asked similar questions from people who smiled without their eyes. The whole experience was slightly creepy.

The interview process was very clearly explained from the outset, which often isn’t the case elsewhere. I completed an editing test before the interviews began, and had a prep session to talk through the process before the interviews began. There were multiple interview rounds, with an increasing number people — towards the end I was able to split ~5 hours of interviews over two days.

Interview questions all center around Amazon’s Leadership Principles — you won’t be told which principle each question relates to, but you need to identify which one based on key words in the question, then reply with an answer, drawing on your experience, that maps to that leadership principle.
