I applied online. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Started off with a web cam pre-brief not counted against you for the interview basic introduction to the recruiter and other candidates interviewing for the same position.
After that you join a video conference with an operations manager.
Started off with tell me about yourself the case study question which was the same one on previous glassdoor reviews about two employees that arrive late. One is penalized one is not What would you do? Then went into behavioral questions nothing out of the ordinary.
Then after that it was another web cam interview with another operations manager no case study just tell me about yourself then behavioral questions.
Surprised there was no math flow question.
