I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon (Indianapolis, IN) in Aug 2020
Interview
The interview process was conducted virtually. I completed an online area manager assessment after being invited to fill out an application. I was invited to a virtual interview event with 2 area managers over Chime, had a great rapport with both interviewers and actually enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately they offered a very very low salary (especially for someone with the education and experience that I have), and I would have been required to move to a very small town 5 hours away. I received a verbal and written offer letter, but I declined due to low salary and the required relocation.
