Phone interview / first stage. Amazon uk role
A very rushed phone interview. Less than 30 minutes spent on a slot that was 45 minutes. As the interviewer was rushing i felt rushed and less open to asking more which i would have liked. Very surprised not to get to the next stage considering i have great experience in the role.
Use the star method to answer questions, its handy gives a clear answer however i don’t think the questions really find out much about the person. It seems they want to follow the process of an interview.

I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Pune) in Jul 2018
Interview
Very smooth and comfortable. There was an English test and a typing test. After this, there was a one-on-one interview. Also, the interviewer was very friendly and made me feel comfortable . Got the offer letter immediately after the interview.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Feb 2018
Interview
Very rigorous process with strong focus on Amazon values. It seemed as if you had to study the values very well to answer the questions in the right way rather than preparing as you would for other interviews
