Got an interview with Amazon within their Advertising department. I hear working for Amazon can be great if you get into the right department. Anyone have insights to their advertising department? Good or bad? Also, would love some interview tips if you have them! (It’s for an Executive Assistant position) thank you!

I’m about to start an internship at IBM for UX Research. I’m super excited about it, and was wondering if anyone could tell me about the design culture there or how the company is for designers? So far online I’ve only heard about the company from consultants or software engineers. For more reference I’ll be working in Austin.

Also, soft skills are really important. I'd rather train someone into the role that is eager, wanting to learn and I can put in front of a client vs someone who may have great design chops but not be a team player.
Ask exactly about the type of work and skills needed for the role, ask about the most common type of projects/deliverables you'd be working on, ask about the typical project timelines and most importantly about what the team's biggest challenges are. This will let you know if you have the skill set needed for the role, or if it's something you can grow into and what the drama with the department is (bc there's always some drama). Remember that the catalyst for the interview is that the company needs to hire someone to do work (Maybe with an urgent need) and they want someone who is capable, has the required skill set and is pleasant enough that they'll be a good team player and that they won't quit after a month and be a poor investment.
Do you have experience in interface design or designing for user needs? Have you facilitated any user research? What do you like best about experience design? Where on the ux spectrum do you fall... research and uncovering user needs or interaction and interface design? What do you want to learn? How do you want to grow?
You're so amazing. Thank you!
