I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Bucharest, Bucuresti)

Rushed and not interested in the candidate. Looking only for metrics, nothing else. The interviewers did not answered any questions about the role, the whole interview ended abrouptly. It was a bad experience.
I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Long. Be prepared to answer every "tell me about a time when" question you can think of. Did not seem particularly relevant to the role I was interviewing for (Communications PM). Some interviewers were nice, one was outright hostile.

You will need to prepare 2 stories per leadership principal, and never reuse the same story twice. So 24 stories total.
