I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Chennai) in Mar 2022
Interview
It was an very awkward interview where the questions was from their tools and methodologies followed in their company. I am wondering how they could even expect these things to be known by the candidate when the methodology differ from company to company. They want answer to be given in their methodology practiced or followed. It was like they are interviewing candidate for internal movement. Complete waste of time.

Question 1
Leading people vs Managing work.
Management consists of controlling a group or a set of entities to accomplish a goal. Leadership refers to an individual’s ability to influence, motivate, and enable others to contribute toward organizational success. Influence and inspiration separate leaders from managers, not power and control
The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Aug 2021
Interview
We are very slow in responding and setting interview dates, which caused some misunderstandings at the end. During the interviews, though, the staff seemed very professional and prepared. 10/6.5 !
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Cape Town) in Oct 2018
Interview
In depth and long. Be prepared for a day wort of interviews. Speak honestly about your experiences. Expect that your answers will be interrogated. They are not trying to trick you, they will look for actual data points though, and not just a "feel"
