Amazon Programming Manager interview questions

The experience was very disappointing. I applied online and then had a phone screen with a recruiter. Although the job was advertised for one of the German offices the first thing she told me was that I was supposed to relocate to Ireland. She wasn't very happy when I told her I wasn't intending to relocate and from then I felt like I was talking to a machine following a script that had absolutely no interest in what I was saying and just wanted to close the call as soon as possible. The recruiter did not provide any details about job and only mentioned something at the end of the interview which was very different from the job description. She also did not seem to be very familiar with the business terminology, things like "feature release" seemed foreign to her. The questions were pretty standard "Tell me about a situation when..." Obviously I was not selected :)

I interviewed at Amazon Fulfillment a year ago. I got the opportunity through a friend who works at Amazon. The overall experience was positive. I had 3 phone interviews if I am not mistaken. One of them was HR related, nothing complicated. Answered some basic questions. And the rest were with the Managers in my future position, to be exact he was my boss-to-be. Well, it was very hard for me. Even though I prepared I got so excited since it was a phone interview and apparently it is not my cup of tea. They are however very straightforward in their questions, no hidden agendas. I wish I was able to get to the face to face part, where I am sure I would have gotten an offer.
