I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Nuova Delhi) in Jan 2018
Interview
1 round of telephonic interview followed by 6 face to face interview rounds
Format is standard with focus on past professional experiences which you can link to Amazon's leadership principles. The hiring is designed such that interviewer evaluates you positively to be a fit rather than trying to find reasons for rejecting you.
The interviewer keeps taking notes throughout the time you're sharing your example which initially will feel a bit discomforting but as the process goes on you kind of feel art ease with that. The sequence of interviews are exhausting so make sure to keep yourself hydrated and we'll fed so add to keep energy levels consistent.
All in all an enriching process which really pushes you to reflect on the work you've done in the past
The first step, the virtual interview process, was fairly long but easy to navigate and work through, and shortly after, I received an invite to interview in person. However, the location for which they reached out for was for the wrong state.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Manager experience, scenarios where I had to act as a manager
Ghosted me after the interview, and they did not notify me I was no longer under consideration. I manually had to check the job portal to verify job application status after a virtual assessment and interview.
The interview process is very robust. You speak with many different people but they moved quickly. Some questions are out of the box and some are straightforward. Overall it was a good experience.
