La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Amazon (Seattle, WA) nel mese di dic 2010
Colloquio
Interview process was consistent with what others had mentioned. 90% situational questions, very little questions about work history and zero questions about what the job would entail. I interviewed with 4 people, none of which was the hiring manager (I think).
The one question to ask, if it's important to you, is work-life balance. Amazon.com has a reputation for expecting their employees to work nights, weekends, whatever it takes to do the job. Be sure to ask this question. I asked the question and received a very diplomatic answer from all 4 interviewers, none of whom said that Amazon.com works hard to ensure all employees achieve work-life balance. Not a good sign.

Each question was a "What would you do in this situation?" question. They aren't out to "get you", they only want to know your thought process.
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.

No HR screen; you answer those questions over email. You do a ridiculous project simulation where you answer emails. Paradoxically it’s interesting yet cheesy at the same time. Very unique but not that difficult. Then the first real interview. Rarely with the direct hiring manager; usually someone else in the org but not this direct team. So it’s useless to research the department. In fact, it’s better to prepare your strong STAR examples. They probe deep, which is fine. They heavily expect numbers. The more you can spout out random numbers (it’s okay, no one will verify) the better. The final round is more of the same — Just more STAR interviews, 2 per session, 4 sessions total. The people in this round are even more critical and harsh than the previous rounds. All done by people who have worked here for 5+ years and have never left — or if they did they came from another FANG company. So they’re all typically arrogant and jaded and negative or on the way to getting there. Finally they all have this weird verbal communication style where they just talk on and on like they expect you to interrupt them — but it’s an interview so you have to be polite can’t interrupt them. So like what the heck.
