The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2021
Interview
I received an email after applying asking for my availability. The email pretty much asked for my availability but was quite impersonal. Had you not looked closely, you’d mistake it for spam. I provided availability and had an hour phone screen with another technical program manager. It was the most awkward interview I’ve had. It was incredibly tactical and mechanical in nature - think being interviewed by software engineers, not leadership. Overall a poor experience and not a good use of time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a difficult problem you had to solve? How did you overcome it? And what did you learn?
Applied, Recruiter Screen then nothing. Not sure when I'll get a call back. The process seems super complicated. Will apply again now that I know what they are looking for.
HR Screening was scheduled. Then 1 technical screening phone interview was scheduled, followed by two Behavioral interviews, followed by two System design interviews, followed by 1 bar raiser interview. Lastly there was an offer.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2025
