I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Prague) in Oct 2021
Interview
This interview was for a "financial analyst" position in Prague which is a poor cover-up name for a B2B customer support position. I gave it a shot expecting a salary of at least 1800 euros net. I got an offer which amounted to 1550 euros gross per month (1162 euros net) which even in Prague barely covers up the cost of living (count 400 for a studio and 400 for food). Interviewers were nice and questions were fair but that will not make up for such a low salary. I was quite surprised because most of the time Amazon pays quite well.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2026
Interview
Straightforward process:
1. introduction 2. Why Amazon? Why ads? + three somewhat complex BQ questions 4. a short case study 5. My turn to ask questions.
Prepare your BQ really good and go learn the LPs cuz I definitely failed that part and was confused by myself during the storytelling.
