Interview
There wasn't one. We were told that we scored high enough on the online evaluation to get the job. The drug test kits were already assembled on the tables and they gave a short presentation on what amazon was like.
It was a direct hiring event. Filled out an assessment , did a drug test and background check on the spot. Offer was emailed to me.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview was a group meeting of fellow warehouse associates. If you showed up you were hired after being contacted by e-mail. A drug test with the whole group was administered. It was a saliva test done on the spot with 30 other people and then sealed in a package to be sent to the lab.
