Interviewed in the summer at Dallas, TX. Flight, hotel, and transportation all accommodated for. As for the actual interview, the recruiting team was very helpful in explaining how the interview process was going to go: 1. Interview with a current Area Manager and 2. Interview with current Senior Manager 3. Debriefing. The interviews itself were pretty straightforward, mostly asked behavioral and "What if..." & "Tell me about a time..." situations. Emphasis on STAR method.

I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Worcester, MA) in Oct 2017
Interview
Lots of behavioral-based questions, as well as a case study. Most questions were phrased as "Tell me about a time you...." so being able to remember specific items on my resume was very helpful. I also tried to mirror the interviewer's language, like saying "associates" instead of "employees".
