Colloquio
I applied for the position online. I was supposed to have a phone interview, but no one ever called. Upon emailing to find out what happened, I was instructed to re-schedule online on a Google Doc. I did this and when the time came to interview again, the interview was cancelled. A few days later I received an email saying I was invited to the Amazon campus to interview in person. This was a final round interview that I magically ended up in. I was told that there would be 2 interviews and a decision would be made.
24 hours before the interview I was sent a writing assessment in which I had to recommend certain promotions while keeping profit and inventory constraints in mind. I completed the assessment and the next day I showed up to the interview and was informed that there would be 3 interviews that day. In the first interview I was grilled on the assumptions that I made in my writing assessment. I was asked to do calculations on the whiteboard in the room. Other than this, there were only really behavioral questions. The 2nd interviewer asked me if I knew what NPV is and had me write the formula for it.
I received a phone call 45 minutes after I left Amazon. The caller was an HR representative offering me the job. They offered me $3500 a month for 6 months. I declined as I had other options on the table that fit my background a little better.

Be prepared to defend your writing assessment assumptions. Other questions I didn't expect were "If you were a VP and had to present an new country for Amazon to start their website in, what things would you consider in making this recommendation?" and "A supplier usually sells product for $10 a unit, but is willing to sell for $7 a unit given we buy many more units than we would typically keep on hand. What things do you consider in deciding to do this or not?"

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.
