I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Apr 2022
Interview
Had 4 interviews back to back (loop), 30 mins each. All the interviews were focused on the Amazon Leadership Principles (LPs), you are not asked any specific questions about yourself but broader questions to showcase your experience. All the answers need to be given using the STAR model,
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of when you saw a peer struggling and decided to step in and help. What was the situation and what actions did you take? What was the outcome? (LP Ownership)
Financial analyst intern, online assessment was based on leadership principles, look at the website for these. Excel and SQL. Probability and analytic skills. Choosing the best reply in different scenarios etc.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2026
Interview
Straightforward process:
1. introduction 2. Why Amazon? Why ads? + three somewhat complex BQ questions 4. a short case study 5. My turn to ask questions.
Prepare your BQ really good and go learn the LPs cuz I definitely failed that part and was confused by myself during the storytelling.
A Virtual Hiring Manager call to discuss my background, evaluate role alignment, explore expectations, and determine next steps in the interview process through a focused, conversational video meeting. Interview was pretty challenging, its important to have succinct examples
