I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2024
Interview
- I initially submitted my application through the company's website, which involved uploading my resume and answering a few preliminary questions about my background and interest in the role.
- Shortly after applying, I completed an online assessment designed to evaluate my problem-solving abilities and critical thinking skills. This was a timed exercise that required attention to detail and swift responses.
- Upon successfully passing the online assessment, I was invited to participate in two rounds of 30-minute interviews. Each interview was conducted with a different team member who probed my past experience, my knowledge of the industry, and how my skills would translate to the role at hand.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me about yourself (background, experience, etc.)
2 B2B 45 minute rounds, 1st asks some amazon LP questions, a bit tricky and niche use cases of the principles, and then some SQL questions. Same thing for second interview but no SQL. They try to use the LP questions to catch you lacking, since generic answers would go against other LP's so you gotta be careful with how you respond.
4 online assessments - 2 fit-based, one technical SQL, one technical Excel
the fit / decision making based assesments incluse more like less like questions and prioritization questions + delegating / focussing questions. The technical SQL interview relates to in depth SQL questions on how to optimize queries for shorter runtimes aswell as writing your own queries to achieve desired outcomes. Finally, there are 2, 45 minute interviews.
