Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Singapur) en oct 2023
Entrevista
1st round - hiring manager
2nd round - Final loop consisting of 5 interviews. They spread it over a number of days and it's all online via chime. They are video calls but 2 of the 5 interviewers didn't turn on their video.
There is a live SQL test (The recruiter said there wouldn't be one but there was) but there definitely was. They are all behavioural based questions based on the leadership principles.
They expect super complex examples and will ask you numerous times about your learnings and challenges from each example so be sure to know what you learnt and be able to be self critical. Also they will continue to dig really deep into your examples and ask lots of questions so make sure you can elaborate on it.
Be prepared to answer "tell me about yourself" 5 times and answer why amazon.

They asked a key question focused on both technical depth and culture fit: how you apply your skills to solve real problems, along with examples demonstrating alignment with Amazon’s leadership principles.

Entrevista
Interviewed for Business Analyst role at Amazon and honestly the process felt exhausting and impersonal.
The interviewers seemed far more focused on checking boxes against the 14 Leadership Principles than actually understanding the candidate or having a genuine conversation. Almost every question was another version of a STAR behavioral scenario, even when it barely related to the actual role.
The process felt extremely rehearsed and rigid. There was little effort to make the candidate feel comfortable or valued, and it often felt like they had already decided the outcome before the interview even started.
Technical and analytical depth barely mattered compared to how perfectly you could package stories into Amazon’s preferred format. If you don’t have polished STAR stories memorized for every possible situation, the process can feel unnecessarily difficult and draining.
Overall, one of the most mentally exhausting interview experiences I’ve had.
The basic STAR format, but the team was not clear about what they were looking for. The recruiter was not very responsive and took a long time to schedule the calls
