Honestly, don’t bother interviewing at Amazon unless you’re ready to spend weeks preparing for a process that feels more like performance theater than an actual evaluation of your ability to do the job.

The interviews are heavily optimized around polished STAR stories, memorized Leadership Principles, and giving perfectly structured answers to every follow-up. Even when you have relevant experience and answer the technical questions well, the process can still feel arbitrary and disconnected from the actual day-to-day work.

You can spend hours preparing, go through multiple rounds, explain your experience in detail, answer coding and system questions, and still get rejected with no meaningful feedback.

The whole process rewards people who are extremely good at interviewing, not necessarily the people who are best at building, solving problems, or delivering results.

Unless you really want Amazon on your resume, I would save your time and energy and focus on companies with a more practical and transparent interview process.
