I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Interview process was easy. At first 30 minutes phone interview by amazon video manager. Mostly behavioral questions. For e.g. “ Tell me about a time you were under a lot of pressure. What was going on, and how did you get through it?” I got a call for 4 hours long onsite interview with 4 amazon video team members. How to manage the project, detailed oriented, previous work experienced with details and a language test. I did not write the foreign language but could speak.
