Interview
During the Interviewing process, you were first greeted by the hiring manager. Keep in mind there are other candidates interviewing at the same time. You spend about 3 hours interviewing with 3 different employees from Amazon. They asked the same technical questions from the initial phone screen interview and a lot of their questions are based on the leadership principles. At the end of the interview, the hiring manager didn't even have the common courtesy to walk us out the door without even saying goodbye at the least. Instead, the hiring manager had an intern walk us out. For a company that focuses on "Customer Service", the hiring manager seemed to lack that quality.

Interview
I applied online and was contacted by recruiting a few weeks later. We had a phone interview and I was sent information to look over for the in-person interview scheduled a couple of weeks later. The interview was with 4 separate people asking questions that felt as they were prepared by someone else. All the questions were hypotheticals and nothing about my work experience and me as a person. Felt like they were developing some kind of interviewing algorithm. Very impersonal. They've been advertising the job for months.

Interview
+1 hour phone call - technical and a 5 hour on site interview. There was a lunch break in between the on site with another person whom was more of a "get to know you" person and allowed for asking more company related questions. Lunch was paid for by the person.
