I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2019
Interview
I interviewed twice for the same round of behavioral interview questions with different hiring managers. I did well and received good feedback, just because first round was for a senior position I was recommended for lower position. But the second interview with another team was completely unfair. I answered same questions, but interviewer was rude and hasty. He blocked my thinking process with abrupt questions and felt like was just trying to fill in the information while interviewing. I request Amazon to improve their hiring process; same interview should not be taken twice just coz teams are different. I could clearly see the difference between the interview skills and listening patience of two interviewers.

Question 1
Q. In-depth project description? Each and every term in detail.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Austin, TX)
Interview
The process consisted of a technical and behavioral round. Although the recruiter stated it would cover SQL and behavioral topics, the interview focused entirely on scenario-based and behavioral questions without a live SQL technical assessment. Communication after the interview was poor; the recruiter did not respond to follow-up emails, and an automated rejection notice was sent two days later.
