I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2018
Interview
I applied online and then was asked to register for a 30 minute phone screen online through a Google doodle. They assigned me to an Amazon recruiter (not the one who sent the original email).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you were tasked with finding 10,000 new products to add to Amazon, how would you go about finding which products to add?
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.
