Hiring process consisted of four phone interviews. Questions were mix of behavioral questions, case questions, and opinion questions. The questions were difficult and required quick thinking. I would suggest to review most common behavioral questions and be prepared to answer any of them.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2017
Interview
step 1: 45 minute first round interview, basic interview questions, "tell me about a time you did..." etc.
Step 2: back to back 30 minute interviews, one with a business analyst (great opportunity for job specific questions), one with HR for logistics of internship- both behavioral questions
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you found a simple solution to a complex problem
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2017
Interview
The interview process was superbly structured:
1st round: With Hiring manager for 1 hour. Behavioral Questions (Tell me about a time .... type questions) and SQL questions (Joins, union functions etc).
2nd round : With a Senior BI manager. Pretty much the same structure as 1st.
I was called for onsite interviews which consists of 5 rounds back to back for an hour each.
All of them where behavioral but all the questions were related to atleast one Amazon principle so make sure you tie your answers to them. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART! Your answer HAS to be linked to one principle! At least!
Interviewers seemed really nice an accommodating. The results of the interview process during each of the stages came out pretty quickly.
