Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was a challenge that you had at a job, and how did you solve it?
The interview was a great experience and offered valuable learning opportunities. The interviewers were extremely kind, supportive, and helpful throughout the process. However, I realized the importance of staying highly focused and precise, especially when delivering STAR-based answers. Accuracy and clarity in structuring responses play a crucial role, and candidates should remain attentive to ensure their answers align with the question.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Long interviews, mainly behavioral questions. Overemphasis on STAR-format answers. Cold and overly formal structure that feels artificial and soulless. No feedback if you’re rejected despite all the time and effort you gave them.
