I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Apr 2008
Interview
My interview was 4 years ago. Things have changed since then however, mine consisted of a 3 person interview panel. It consisted of the Site General Manager, the Learning Manager and an HR Rep. They provided a math question which essentially was related to creating a staffing plan scenario based on circumstances they provided. There were questions that they sent to me earlier to answer and discuss during the interview that were extremely simplistic to answer and then other questions specific to my background and experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I strugged with the math question due to the way that the details were provided and didn't expect them to want me to provide the math on a white board.
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
STAR method is a must. very results focused so add what you contributed. had 3 back to back interviews that were quick and they spent most of the time reading and taking notes
