I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Jan 2020
Interview
Asked a lot of odd problem solving questions like: if you were a manager at a fast food restaurant and the ice cream machine is always broken on XYZ'z shift, what do you do. After general interviews they had a math interview where you white board your answers to a problem in front of a panel.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you were a manager at a fast food restaurant and the ice cream machine is always broken on XYZ'z shift, what do you do?
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
STAR method is a must. very results focused so add what you contributed. had 3 back to back interviews that were quick and they spent most of the time reading and taking notes
