@D1- On site = Amazon Office

Leadership principles and that’s it. Create examples that showcase those. Amazon people are too drunk on their coolaid so that’s all that matters. Other thing, try to figure out who your bar raiser is. Make sure you ace that interview. It’s usually a person from outside the business area you are interviewing for. He/she vetoes the decision

On the website you mean? When you say amazon on site!!

Yes. Did an on-site super day in Seattle. Great experience. 2 verbal “case studies”, 1 technical skills (product/program management - may as well have been another case), and 1 behavioral. Offer received.

Prep by studying their leadership principles and having in depth stories for each. Be personable, talk through your thought process, and know your shit. Very similar to EY interview process.

@Kpmg1: thanks. Is there a reference or book on type of questions?

It’s going to vary greatly based on what area of Amazon you’re going for. I would really, really focus on memorization of the principles (you can google them) and having stories for them. The interview team questions are all based on them outside of the case questions.

For the case, you really just need to be a problem solver. I had ZERO knowledge as a SME for my cases, but they wanted to see how I would solve the problem. I would assume that, as a consultant, you’ll be able to ask enough probing questions to gather information and form a first draft recommendation. That’s what they’re looking for.

Thanks @kpmg2

There are 12 or 14 leadership principles listed on their site, start with those

@kpmg2 : yeah we covered a few in my phone interviews.

Hello, does anyone work as an auto underwriter for insurance? I recently got accepted for an internal job position and was offered $50k. I’m currently a claim processor making $20/hour so the offer is more than what i’m making but is low in comparison to the average salary for an auto underwriter in AZ (which is around $58k). I believe because the company knows how much i’m making they lowballed me. Any tips on how to navigate the salary negotiation and can u share ur salary ?
