I can share my experience for Amazon. I had several phone interviews (with different teams) then i finally cleared one and was invited to an onsite within 2 weeks. Eventually ended up interviewing with 5 people onsite (2 in person and 3 virtual, yes virtual). All of them were nice, even the bar raiser. They genuinely want you to get in- so prep 1-2 example for each leadership principle in STAR format and lot of metrics and data in your answers.
Also, this may just be my case, but they also ask basic Project Management fundamentals such as “critical path” etc. Hit me up if you have anything specific in mind. All the best!

I've been searching for a new job because I know I am underpaid. I have 12+ years of experience in the event industry and seven years in the Event Tech world. I interviewed with Netflix, Amazon, and Microsoft. I went through all the stages, but I was not selected. Any advice? I think I did great in all my interviews; my resume is solid, and I have four university degrees including a Master’s. I speak English and Spanish. Any advice of what my problem might be?

I applied for a job and received an offer from my client. 15k+ bump in salary, better benefits/remote work, and responsibilities will give me exposure to all areas of the organization (start up). The problem is that they’re looking to staff me as a Senior when I’m currently a Manager at DT. They said they’re flexible on title, but curious to hear how others have navigated similar situations. I would report directly to the controller and have 1-2 staff reporting to me...
