J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Prague)
Entretien
The interview process at Amazon is known for being rigorous and structured. It generally consists of several stages designed to assess both technical and behavioral competencies.
1. Initial Screening
Recruiter Phone Screen: This is the first step, where a recruiter contacts you to discuss your background, qualifications, and interest in the role. They may ask about your experience and assess whether you're a fit for the role.
Technical/Behavioral Phone Screen: Depending on the role, you may have one or two phone screens. For technical roles, these might involve coding challenges or problem-solving questions.
2. Online Assessment (For Some Roles)
3. On-site or Virtual Interviews ("Loop")
4. Bar Raiser
A unique part of Amazon’s interview process is the Bar Raiser. This is an experienced Amazon employee who is not directly related to the team you're applying for. Their role is to ensure that Amazon’s hiring standards remain high. They focus heavily on evaluating cultural fit and long-term potential.
5. Final Decision
After the loop interviews, the interviewers meet to discuss and review the candidate’s performance. The Bar Raiser’s input is significant, but the hiring decision is made collectively. If you're selected, you will receive an offer, which may involve salary and benefits negotiations.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to deal with a difficult customer.
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.

No HR screen; you answer those questions over email. You do a ridiculous project simulation where you answer emails. Paradoxically it’s interesting yet cheesy at the same time. Very unique but not that difficult. Then the first real interview. Rarely with the direct hiring manager; usually someone else in the org but not this direct team. So it’s useless to research the department. In fact, it’s better to prepare your strong STAR examples. They probe deep, which is fine. They heavily expect numbers. The more you can spout out random numbers (it’s okay, no one will verify) the better. The final round is more of the same — Just more STAR interviews, 2 per session, 4 sessions total. The people in this round are even more critical and harsh than the previous rounds. All done by people who have worked here for 5+ years and have never left — or if they did they came from another FANG company. So they’re all typically arrogant and jaded and negative or on the way to getting there. Finally they all have this weird verbal communication style where they just talk on and on like they expect you to interrupt them — but it’s an interview so you have to be polite can’t interrupt them. So like what the heck.
