I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Minneapolis, MN) in Mar 2020
Interview
Applied online, got a series of emails from HR, including details about how to prepare for the interview. Spoke to the direct manager first, and then the Sr. Manager in a second interview. Both were behavioral heavy - "tell me about a time when". Interview w/Sr. Manager asked a lot of questions about my direct experience that related to the job description.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (München, Bayern) in Mar 2020
Interview
Relativ nüchternes Vorstellungsgespräch, mit Fokus auf die Amazon Principles. Es geht eher um "wie haben Sie damals reagiert" als "wo sehen Sie sich in 5 Jahren". Wichtig sind Leadership und Kundenfokus.
