I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Tallahassee, FL) in Jul 2024
Interview
There is an initial interview where they learn about you and your credential to see if you're a good fit. There is then a final round of interview all taking place on the same day. It consists of 4 meetings, the first of which is a pre-interview brief. After the brief you have three rounds of interviews, back to back!

Question 1
Describe a time where you were given a task and you didn't succeed. Explain how you handled it, and what were the consequences. Also explain how you improve your processes to avoid that in the future.
Star Method and Leadership Principles. Just study these from the materials they give you, and form a story for each principle, and when they ask questions, you can see which principle they are asking about.

Multiple online tests after application, followed by a virtual interview with various staff. Staff did not want to be on camera and did not have many good things to say about working there.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
