They interview you with two different people back to back. One person is very friendly and asks fun questions and the other person asks more technical questions and occasionally, asks a math question if you are a supply chain major.

Interview
The first two interviews consisted of a math assessment and situational interview. Eveything went well until I ran in to a interviwer who had something to prove; he asked me about irrelevant subject matter and insulted me because I disagreed with his philosophy so he said that my laid back demeanor would be my demise if I were out on the floor I would be eaten alive...

Interview
After a great delay in having the interview take place (Amazon apparently didn't schedule my interview correctly and it was delayed over a month past the initial set date), I received a phone call shortly before my scheduled time. The interview was fairly simple, just general questions about my previous expereiences and how I have learned from them. I was asked for specific examples of metric success, so keep that in mind when you have yours. After a few questions, I asked a couple of questions and then that was it, entire call took about twenty minutes. Hung up thinking I did pretty well and I got an email a few days later saying they weren't going to move forward with me. Oh well.
I spoke with a regional manager in the Southern PA area, he didn't seem too interested in the interview in my mind and he did not speak super professional either. I didn't particularly think he was very suited to be asking me questions when he said uh and um in asking his questions that were right in front of him.
