Amazon Area Manager interview questions

I applied online and was contact via a Military Recruiter for the Area Manager position. A human resources representative emailed me and scheduled a phone interview for later during the week. I called into the conference call and waited, for the entire 30 minutes of length the HR rep said my interview should last. No one on Amazon's side joined and therefore I hung up and emailed the HR rep. She apologized and rescheduled the interview, and after a few hours I completed the phone interview. It was simple, in the STAR format and asked for specific situation and result based questions. The Operations Manager I spoke with was humorous, asked me about myself, my experience and then we went into the interview. This was simple, I was myself and thought it went very well. They ask a general algebra question which initially I answered incorrectly and while explaining my answer realized I had computer it wrong, brought it up and worked through it again with no issues. They want to hear your process of how you get to the answer. I was never contacted back personally by the rep. I had to email to make any contact or get updates on the status of my interview process. I found this odd, but then again was always told I was the manger of my own career, so I continued to pursue and often felt like I was constantly bugging the HR rep for information. However, I was still interested in the position. After emailing her, she responded that I was invited back for an event interview. After two weeks I emailed her asking the status of the second interview, which would be event style, and she stated that there were currently no open positions and that I would, if I was willing, be put into a que with many others waiting for a position to come available. I stayed in touch with her an emailed every two weeks. The last I heard is they were working on scheduling an event interview at a facility by the end of the month (this was on the 7th) and it's a month later and still nothing. Needless to say, I've given up on the position and looked elsewhere. I am disappointed because I admired Amazon, their slogan, work ethic, and people I've met who work there. However, after this experience I can honestly say they're letting good talent slip through the cracks by a lack of attention to detail in their HR department.

There was a math question which has been covered at length on glassdoor. All the other questions were behavioral. One person on the interview panel is a "bar raiser." This person will most likely push back on your answers to see how you respond. Just keep your cool and think through how you respond. They're not necessarily looking for the "right" answer, but they want to see how you think and respond.
