      Fulfillment Center Distribution Manager Interview

      25 Apr 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Louisville, KY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Louisville, KY) in Sept 2011

      Interview

      This was probably one of my favorite interviews ever. The interview consisted of visiting one of Amazon's fulfillment centers where I was asked to wear closed-toe shoes and long pants and bring no cell phone into the facility to avoid sharing trade secrets. After going through the metal detector, I walked into the enormous building and was taken to a room for the first part of the interview: the math test. It was a simple enough test dealing with staffing. Following that, I was walked to another room for a panel interview where the first part of the interview involved writing my answers to the math test on a whiteboard and discussing them. (I actually gave the interviewers the one set of answers they weren't prepared for and stalled the interview process because my answers were above and beyond what anyone else had thought to do.) The panel took about 30-45 minutes and was fairly relaxed with standard interview questions involving my resume and ethical situation questions. Following the interview, I was taken on a tour of the facility and got to see what an Amazon Fulfillment Center looks like and how it works. It was probably my favorite part of the entire interview as I was allowed to discuss what I was seeing and ask lots of questions about the company.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      From the math test staffing situation: If one person leaves this position early because he gets sick, how would you reassign the remaining employees in order to ship out the correct number of product for the day?
