Question

How to get a job in Amazon ?

Answer 1

Here is the steps:

1) Know what I want — search on Amazon career site and identify a few positions you’re interested. Apply online. You might or might not hear from Amazon recruiter.

2) Network and get a current amazon employee to make a referral.

3) Amazon interview process include 1–3 phone screens and onsite interviews (4–7 people). Depending on the job, you will be asked three types of questions:

1) behaviors/amazon leadership questions (use my book How to Get a Job at Amazon as the guide and you’ll do fine in this critical area)

2) Technical skills if you’re applying for a technical position. It means you need to brush up your data structure, algorithm and coding skills if you’re applying for SDE positions.

3) Domain knowledge/functional skills (i.e. how you do your job).

4) Amazon recruiting process can be chaotic and stressful but if you take one step a time, put in the hours and efforts to practice, and with a little bit luck, you’ll be working for amazon.
