Interview
The interview process was discombobulated to say the least. It was evident that I was being handed around to different people during the process. I interacted with approximately 6 different recruiting coordinators and recruiters. Was brought onsite twice for two seperate positions. Communication about the process was minimal, not consistent, and incredibly confusing. Learning the STAR method of interviewing and studying beforehand was helpful. The interview loops are intense. Answering questions from 6 different people through the course of one full day is overwhelming and seems intentional. Take heed as this is a real glimpse into how Amazon operates.

The second phone screen was more about style and cultural fit. Day-long interview loop with hiring manager, 3 of the hiring Manager's direct reports and 2 other EAs. Each interview was an hour.
