I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Dubai) in Mar 2017
Interview
The process was overall very professional. I was notified by email to set up a phone interview, I asked for tips and interview guidelines and I got them. The interview took place on time and was professional and the interviewer refrained from abstract questions such as "what do you consider is your biggest weakness etc. etc."
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was the most advanced thing that you did on your previous job?
The process consisted of three rounds - a recruiter call, a case study round, and a final behavioral interview. The case study involved analyzing a dataset and presenting recommendations to a panel. Interviewers were professional and asked thoughtful follow-up questions. Feedback was provided within a week of the final round.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Austin, TX)
Interview
The process consisted of a technical and behavioral round. Although the recruiter stated it would cover SQL and behavioral topics, the interview focused entirely on scenario-based and behavioral questions without a live SQL technical assessment. Communication after the interview was poor; the recruiter did not respond to follow-up emails, and an automated rejection notice was sent two days later.
