For advice re. The interview you will find a ton pf things online. The importance of the LP and the STAR method but there is also on this bowl a current Amazonian who has written a thorough post with more details. Regarding the application, i would suggest to use your network for a referral but to also ensure that your resume shows alignment of your experience with the expectations for the role you would apply for.
