I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Milan) in Mar 2012
Interview
After applying to the job posting I received their request for a first round phone interview. I talked with an employee that was working in the same role. He was very friendly and asked me about my working back ground trying to find points of contacts with the position I was applying for. Then he described the caracterisitics of his job highligting pros and cons.
It took less than one hour to go through all the the interview questions.
Some days later I received an e-mail in order to arrange a second phone interview with an HR manager and an Executive.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England)
Interview
Standard behavioral “loop” (multiple back to back interviews) where interviewers probe to see if you are aligned with leadership principles and can adequately speak to them. There were zero surprises, advice would be to be yourself, for these roles they are looking for a particular skillset and if you have it, it will manifest in your honest answers.
