J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Seattle, WA) en févr. 2016
Entretien
I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter. Had 2 phone screens followed by an onsite.
Time between recruiter contact and phone screen 1 slot confirmation :: 1 day
Phone screen 1: Behavioral questions to assess cultural fit, previous work experience, basic statistics and SQL
Time between phone screen 1 -> Update on Decision -> scheduling phone screen 2 :: 5 biz days
Phone screen 2: Behavioral questions to assess business acumen
Time between phone screen 2 -> Update on Decision -> Scheduling onsite:: 14 biz days
Onsite interviews: 5 rounds (1 Director and 4 Sr.Business Managers). Interviews were interesting as the questions range from assessing culture fit to previous experience to basic SQL and statistics to solving business cases from the team's business model.
Notes to others who are aiming for a business analyst position at Amazon: Be confident and get ready to answer what you have done in your previous job. Brush up your basic SQL skills (my job description doesn't mention SQL, but I was given basic SQL questions in the interview). It's OKAY not to answer right in in the onsite interviews, your understanding of the question and approach to solving the problem and staying cool are more important. Lastly, be yourself! Good luck!
I was interviewed on Friday. Recruiter called and informed me regarding the offer on Monday morning. Was provided with offer letter later in the afternoon which I happily accepted!

Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
They asked a key question focused on both technical depth and culture fit: how you apply your skills to solve real problems, along with examples demonstrating alignment with Amazon’s leadership principles.

Interviewed for Business Analyst role at Amazon and honestly the process felt exhausting and impersonal.
The interviewers seemed far more focused on checking boxes against the 14 Leadership Principles than actually understanding the candidate or having a genuine conversation. Almost every question was another version of a STAR behavioral scenario, even when it barely related to the actual role.
The process felt extremely rehearsed and rigid. There was little effort to make the candidate feel comfortable or valued, and it often felt like they had already decided the outcome before the interview even started.
Technical and analytical depth barely mattered compared to how perfectly you could package stories into Amazon’s preferred format. If you don’t have polished STAR stories memorized for every possible situation, the process can feel unnecessarily difficult and draining.
Overall, one of the most mentally exhausting interview experiences I’ve had.

The basic STAR format, but the team was not clear about what they were looking for. The recruiter was not very responsive and took a long time to schedule the calls
