I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Columbia, SC) in Jul 2011
Interview
First there was a phone interview with the recruiter. Then, since they were opening a new plant, they put on a mass interview session at one of the convention centers. The interview consisted of 3 separate interviews. The first two were with a two member panel each and the last one was with a single person. The single person portion was talking him through a math flow problem that you had to solve. Onc e you solved it he then asked you some "what if" questions based on your response.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Although not unexpected I found the question regarding past mistakes difficult because you have to measure your answer based on what you think they will expect.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.

Question 1
Conflict between coworkers, how would you approach resolving?
STAR method is a must. very results focused so add what you contributed. had 3 back to back interviews that were quick and they spent most of the time reading and taking notes
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
