Amazon's interview is, as advertised, tightly scripted and follows a specific format. Its not crazy-hard in a technical sense; but it is a verbal minefield given the way they train their interviewers to look for key phrases and behaviors. Their focus is on discussing specific examples of what you have done in the past, and on how your answers match up with the Amazon Leadership Principles. Things worth noting: (1) Discussion of future actions/style (i.e. "things I'd do differently now") are somewhat ignored, sadly. This can handicap you if you are coming from a previous employment situation where you were held back or unable to execute on something. (2) You are NOT likely to chat with the hiring manager or HR rep at the end of your interview; they don't circle-back like at many companies. So even if you're pressed for time you really need to ask your questions and get clarification from them at the start of your interview day, because you won't have a chance later. (3) Although Amazon trains its interviewers for consistency, they do not all pay the same attention to the role you're interviewing for or your schedule - don't get thrown off if someone in the middle or later stages of your interview describes the job incorrectly or the number of interviewers you have left to see. Your best data comes from the HR recruiter and the Hiring Manager (whom you're likely to have interviewed with very early on in the day).
