First Phone Interview: This was with a recruiter or a member of the finance team. They asked questions about my resume, experience, and why I wanted to work at Amazon.
Second Phone Interview: This involved more technical questions related to finance, such as my understanding of financial statements, financial modeling, and analytical skills.

Domanda 1
Behavioral Questions: Amazon places a strong emphasis on its Leadership Principles. I prepared to answer behavioral questions using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). For example, I described a time when I had to make a tough decision with limited information.
Technical Questions: These assessed my finance knowledge and problem-solving abilities. I answered questions about financial analysis, forecasting, budgeting, and possibly some case studies or business scenarios.
Role-Specific Questions: Depending on the team, I got questions specific to the business unit I was interviewing for. For example, if it was for AWS, I answered questions related to cloud computing economics.
Il processo di selezione è iniziato con uno screening con un recruiter HR, focalizzato su esperienza, motivazione e fit con il ruolo. Successivamente ho sostenuto un colloquio con due diversi manager, durante il quale sono state poste domande comportamentali, richiedendo l’utilizzo della metodologia STAR per strutturare le risposte. Le domande erano orientate a esperienze pratiche e gestione di situazioni reali.
