I got the interview from a friend's reference. The recruiter scheduled a phone screen interview first, and I talked to a hiring manger for 40 minutes. At the beginning, she asked me to talked about some of my own research. I think that was just a warming-up before the real question she wanted to ask. The real question is they collected purchase record data at a store for the whole year, so how do you find out the major reason why customers walked into a store. It's an open question, and I think they really want to find somebody to help with this specific question. I was not very sure about what answer they are looking for. I didn't make it to the next step.

Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
