I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
I had two virtual panel interviews. The second one immediately followed the first. So, I blocked out four hours to play safety first. Make sure to drink water to stay hydrated and prevent dry mouth. However, not too much in case there's no time for a bathroom break. They conduct behavioral interviews using the STAR method, so a question is no longer one sentence with a question mark at the end of it. It becomes at least three, in my experience. When the recruiters ask 'questions,' candidates should intertwine those Leadership Principles to share their expertise, conveying Situations, Tasks, Actions, and Results, in their answers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I asked each of my interviewers, Where do you see yourself within the company 10 years from now? What do you intend to do to get there, how do you intend to network within the company to facillitate it, and where am I in that process?
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.

Question 1
Conflict between coworkers, how would you approach resolving?
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
