When the interviewer asks question, do we get some time to think about the story? If so how much seconds i should take to think about a story to tell?

Another fantastic information shared. Thank you GG!

Very useful information, it fills a crucial gap in my preparation.

Thank you for these videos

Is the pay of an L5 CSR the same as an L5 account manager?

You’re just amazing. Thanks for sharing all these useful information with the “hopefully soon to be amazonian” community 😊.

Hi, I like the conciseness and informativeness of your content. I recently got the chance to enter the final interview loop with Amazon. I requested to split my interview over two days and gave my availability for two weeks from now so I can have time to practice. However, I’m worried that scheduling it two weeks out might be too far away. What do you think-is it reasonable to set the date 2 or even 3 weeks later?

Looking forward to Monday 9/9 session. Is it ok to log in a few mins late?

Before answering it, Is it applicable to ask "May I ask what would you like to know about me in particular"? I love your videos Gg. Looking forward to acing my upcoming interview with your help.

should the amazon leadership principles specifically be aligned with my resume ? Or can i make stories ?

Thanks so much for your tips, I used them all of them, unfortunately after panel interviews they wished me good look and success. But after 4 days they said, no, we don't want u :(. Context: They were a bit rude in the interview they did wrong it supposed they should not ask me directly about Amazon principles, but they did, the 2/4 they asked me like answer my question with these two principles... I felt that I performed well in the interview, especially with my English communication, despite the interviewers mainly speaking Spanish. However, their superior attitude and unprofessional gestures in response to my experience were disappointing. I used the STAR method to provide clear examples, but they didn’t seem to understand or appreciate them, insisting I hadn’t used the exact wording of an Amazon principle. I even gave another example to explain how I applied the principle, but their reactions made it seem like they weren’t fully engaged. Given their six years of experience at Amazon, I expected a more professional approach.

Hello, I am in a similar situation. I interviewed for Product Manager and had full interview & mini loop but the recruiter mentioned that the team feels that I am more a program manager vs product manager and that they want to know if I am ok if they can find a fit. I dont have specifics of why they thought so, what signals I didnt provide and how can i convey that i do not want the program manager shift and would only like to contine the current career track. What happens with this decision?

Thanks again and again for highlighting all the nuances in the Amazon interview process. As it is very evident, things are not as black and white as one would expect. Just wondering if someone would have fallen under no hire-no recycle, should not be the cooling period thing be detailed out to him. In my understanding are the below the only three outcomes of a loop- a) Hire and offer b) No hire- recycle c) No hire- cooling period As a candidate, understanding the last 2 options must be tricky. How exactly do I know whether I have been recycled or not? What do you make out of the below message after the panel interview I was not selected. e.g. Your skills and experience are valuable, and we encourage you to stay in contact for future openings. Your profile will remain active in our database, and with your consent, we may reach out for opportunities that align with your skill set. Please keep an eye on our careers page for future job postings. My second question is b) When I apply for other roles now, do the other recruiters/hiring managers get to know that I have been recycled based on the previous panel/loop. Otherwise, I am just like another applicant and have no advantage.

For the interview through chime should i share the screen?

While attending Interview through chime online and thoughout the interview loop, is it mandatory to look at camera and speak or is it fine to look at the screen and answer the responses?

Like Like the Stream👯👯👯👯👯👯💃

Yet another amazing content. The depth of enriching value you offer is very much appreciated. Thank you for your service on this "Labor Day" in the USA. Thank you!😃

How do I know which level the job is for and what package can I expect. Do they change level basis years of experience and skills

I have an Amazon UK interview this week and finding your videos helpful

Is it fine if the story lenght exeeds 10 minutes or should i focus on finishing it within 7 to 10 min?

I liked the video, gave it a thumbs up, and subscribed!

Thank you for the useful tips❤ I will share with you if I get an offer in a couple of weeks

Hello Gigi, thank you for the knowledge you are providing us. I have had a poor experience with the HM, she did not ask any LP question, instead asked normal questions of the day to day task and the most innovative solution I have implemented and that's it, no any other questions, she had her camera off, I thought I did great since the questions were simple and I have showed all my skills and innovations done, through STAR method, still was rejected, it was for a Senior PM role, I only received this email "Thank you for speaking with us about the position...After careful consideration, we have decided not to progress with your application for this role. While we're unable to provide additional feedback or information about this decision, we would like to keep in touch regarding future job opportunities. Thanks again for your interest in working at Amazon." Nothing after, no any email or call. Does this mean I can keep applying? I have already applied for two other roles and I can see them clearly on the job board as submitted. Appreciate your help, it was a tough month and a half were I passed the recruited phone screen, online assessment, and failed the HM still not sure why, most prob she did not properly understand my skills and experience.

For the Sr Program Manager (Non- Tech) role, does the interviewer asks specifically about the techncial questions like How I Used Excel VBA and Macros or linear Programming Algorithms that I have used in my previous projects? Like specifically above the coding stuff

what if the bar raiser wants to hire the candidate and hiring manager does not?

I just finished my interview for 5 hrs today for a manager role at Amazon and the final person (regional manager) went over by 40 mins - almost 6 hours sheesh

while providing the response in STAR format, is it fine to explicility mention the leadership principle that I have used in my action part ? example: "This experience highlights my alignment with Amazon’s leadership principles of Invent and Simplify" OR " This aligns with Dive Deep, as I used detailed data analysis to gain insights"

I watched so many of your videos, but still failed my loop. My interviewers were rude even. Not sure I want to work for a company with people like that.

Thank you so much. I appreciate the time, the efforts, and the nuggets shared.

GG, with all due respect to your experience, I find it rather naive to think that a delay in response after the 5-business-day deadline has no relation to the outcome. It's evident that the HR team's energy and priority will be focused on notifying the candidates who passed and will receive an offer, rather than those who didn't make it. If HR has to choose between the two, they will undoubtedly concentrate on the candidates who were successful.

What are the leadership principles i should focus on for a sr. Product compliance position ?

Incredible Content..!! Thank you GG n Vivek 🙏

Hello ma'am I am from India and I have applied for Amazon games specialist role and I have cleared the assessment and after which I was invited for HR round interview but due to large number of candidates in the meeting the HR couldn't interview them all and rescheduled the meeting for the remaining candidates for day after tomorrow and said that we will receive a mail regarding the meeting but it has been 11 days but we haven't got any mail yet what should I expect?

Hi GG , Thanks for lot for posting really insightful videos behind amazon interview process. I have my telephone interview for a TAM role scheduled for September. Can you please advise how many stories are expected in this round ?

Hi GG! Thank you for sharing such valuable details on how to prep for "Tell me about yourself". I have a 45 minute phone interview scheduled next week. This is for the role "Financial Analyst III". Please could you give me tips on how to prepare for it and also the next up-coming rounds?

Hi do you have any insight for the interview for the AFP program. I did the interview, used all the suggested, techniques, thought I aced it but didn't receive an offer.

Hello, 3 days after my Amazon LOOP interview, I received an Email from the recruiter congratulating me on the positive feedback for my interview, but unfortunately unable to offer me the position because someone else filled the position. I noticed that the position was no longer available even before my LOOP. They said that they will put me in the bench pool and that if available position comes, they will contact all the people in the bench pool before making the position public. I am worried, hope they will remember to get back to me? I practiced really so hard for this LOOP

Wow!!! Thank you so much. Little wonder I was unable to fix it all in, in 60 seconds.

If we get offer and should we ask them we will be joining them after a month notice or we should directly join asap.

Thank you for the video. can we repeat the examples for " tell me when" types questions to different interviewers in different rounds?

I watched as many of your videos as I could pack in while prepping for my interview and I got word today that I got the job!

Ahh, I was part of a pool of roles. I originally applied to a Front-End Engineer I role but they swapped me to a Front-End Engineer II role before the final round of 5 interviews. Just got a "Rate your Recruiting Process" email 2 weeks after my 1 hour phone interview, which is a little concerning but so far I still have the 5 interviews scheduled 2 weeks from now.

Thank you so much, such a helpful video!

What happens when two interviewers interviewed someone. One of the interviewers was impressed while the other one didn't show satisfaction. How will the decision be made whether to hire the person or not?

What happens if one is interviewed by two interviewers in the LOOP interview. One of the interviewers was impressed and recommended the candidate for a hire while the other interviewer wasn't impressed? What happens?

I had my 6th interview yesterday for a position in Cape Town. I’m Super nervous 😬.

Can u do on Continuous Improvement Engineer

Hi. I've been watching your video for interview preparation and recently finished the loop at Amazon. The recruiter got back to me saying the entire team was inclined and I'm in the offer ready stage. However, the position I applied for was filled by an internal candidate before my debrief. The recruiter said he doesn't have any role open on his hand to fill me in but he'll reach out to other hiring managers, and encouraged me to find similar roles I would be intersted in. I wonder if you are familiar with this situation, and if there's anything else I need to do other than contacting my recruiter for other similar positions. Thanks again for the great content!
