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.
Hi GG, You're doing a great job. I found your channel just before my bar raiser round which I was able to identify after watching your video. Your videos really helped me to prep for my last round at Amazon and Yesterday I got my acceptance mail. Thanks!
Ugh, I feel so dumb. I had an interview for a technical role with a technical lead. I assumed I'd get technical questions. But I was only asked "tell me about yourself" and stories related to the leadership principles. I kind of panicked, didn't really answer the questions asked (!) and instead talked about why they should hire me/my value added. I was all over the map. Ugh...

Hi GG!! Firstly, I want to thank you so much for your content. I don't think I could've prepared better for my interview without your advice! I just finished my first round for a Sr. Program Manager role and was asked tell me about yourself (chronological method into somewhat professional you).

I wasn't able to talk about my love for the team's purpose and why specfically that team and Im wondering if I may have sold myself short by not being asked Why Amazon. Any thoughts? (I may also be overthinking haha)

Hi GG, thank you for the videos. I just wrapped up my 2nd ph interview for non tech Execution Program Management role. The interviewer was a few mins late (it was 9 am PT) call. He had not read my resume. The process started 10 mins in the call. He went all the way back to my 1st job, odd, given 10 mins had already been lost. No functional no behavioral questions were asked. It was all about what was the scope of your role, % time spent doing what responsibilities. My recruiter had told me it would be all behavioral which is what I had prepped for, so that’s interesting. The questions truly did not allow for story telling but explain me your role/responsibility question for 30 mins with just 1 employer. The interviewer gave me 5 mins to talk about current role, odd. I did ask him to clarify his questions throughout the process. The call ended ok. Also it was scheduled as a phone interview but the interviewer had their video turned on, so I went with it, was dressed alright hah! I’m not very hopeful at this time.
What can I say- there are bad interviewers in every company. I’m afraid the larger amazon gets the less rigour is going to be applied to maintaining training and compliance standards for interviewers. Sad but true. If you don’t make it past round 1 make sure you feed back to your Recruiter how far away from the expectations that were set, your experience was.

Hi GIGI long time :) :) Thanks for all Videos are very inspiring, When the recruiter said " we should try to add Data As much as we can in L.P so here Data like evidence , report or what exactly she meant about it if you please
Hi GG, love your videos, very informative and have been learning a lot from you! Could you please let me know if we ask Amazon interviewers for 15-20 seconds to gather our thoughts for every question, will that be held against us? The reason I ask is because I have the loop round coming up next week and I have about 36 stories prepared with a lot of data and I might need few seconds to collect my thoughts before starting to answer their question.
Hi GG. Your videos are awesome and really helpful. I have my interview scheduled next week for the Catalogue Manager role. Request your guidance and if you could help me with the type of questions that I can expect.
Hello GG! I must say your videos are very inspiring ! i have a phone interview with the hiring manager tomorrow for an area manager role. do you have any advice or tips for what to expect or the questions that might be asked within the 45mins? I'm shitting myself!😢
I can't predict that for you I'm afraid. Each role has different key LPs and reach interviewer gets to choose the questions they want to ask (based on the key LPs). Good luck. Check out my video on nerves ua-cam.com/video/8Lm4pj-uAbY/v-deo.html

Hi GG, thank you for your informative videos. I have an upcoming interview with Amazon for a L5 AWS Global recruiter role. Do you have any tips re top questions and questions relating to data. I have a HR background and recruitment is an area I have recently been heavily involved in. Thank you
There are no top questions for any job family. Interviewers ask their favourite/preferred questions from the AIQB (or make them up themselves). Questions are job family agnostic.
@Amazon Interview Whizz @ Day One Careers thank you, GiGi. I'm trying not to psych myself out with overthinking. This has been my dream job for quite some time now. Really hoping that I make the cut and I will keep watching your videos. Thank you
Hi and good morning. Great videos. I had a Amazon recruiter reach out to me and ask if I would be interested. I said yes and I have a first scheduled call with a recruiter on the 1st of November, could you tell me what is expected on this first call? Also, I would like to prepare for this process, do you offer help along this journey?
Gigi, I'm on contract right now with AWS. Getting ready to loop in at L6 as a Sr.Tech Recruiter. Interviewing with my current team, the team will know metrics prior to the interviewer. I'm struggling to decide % of LP answers that I should provide with current exp vs past exp.
@GG, I have recently heard of a deeper dive strategy when "Tell me about yourself" is asked. The strategy essentially states that ask the interviewer " before I go down the path to share what I can bring to the company, could you tell me more about the role"? I personally do not like that style. Have you seen that at Amazon? How is it perceived at Amazon?
Don’t do that. You get time at the end of every interview to ask questions. Plus be aware of who your interviewer is- they may not know anything about the role.
Hi GG, any tips to tackle the panel interviews as an ex Amazonian? Started my career at Amazon and took on a different roles before applying again. Any dos and don'ts specifically for this use case?
Gigi I talked about my personal struggle and how I can over come it when they ask me how do I research to overcome challenges. I am kind of annoyed and running out of stories and they ask me to talk about business. I then give out my business case. Will it be a rejection immediately from the offer? Thanks.
May I know if I should reveal my criminal conviction to the loop interviewers? Will they take that into account during the debrief? I revealed this to the hiring manager during the first phone screen and still made it to the loop.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 thanks for the advice! But won’t Amazon find out eventually? I’m suppose there’s some background check after passing the debrief and before they make an offer
@@HengOngHuatAh you said you already told the HM and I assume on your application you had to declare your criminal record. You need to be honest and share the information if asked but it doesn’t need to go any further than the HM and your application. The other interviewers are there to assess you against LPs and Functional Skills- that’s it! The rest of your life isn’t their business. If you weren’t asked on your application, you would be at offer stage.

@@HengOngHuatAh you said you already told the HM and I assume on your application you had to declare your criminal record. You need to be honest and share the information if asked but it doesn’t need to go any further than the HM and your application. The other interviewers are there to assess you against LPs and Functional Skills- that’s it! The rest of your life isn’t their business. If you weren’t asked on your application, you would be at offer stage.
Great! I have a 3 round back to back interviews tomorrow for an accommodation consultant. Do you have any idea how many questions this will include?
Usually 2-4 per interview, depending on how complex your answers are. Good luck.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 thank you!
@@noonieluv3485 my pleasure
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 Hi! I received my offer yesterday and I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help! These videos gave me the confidence I needed to succeed. In my situation I had received no word back within a week of my interview, I emailed the contact and was told they were still trying to get things squared away. It took a total of 28 days haha but it was worth the wait. I’ve told so many people about your videos, You’re a life saver!
@@noonieluv3485 holy moly 28 days to get your answer. That’s shocking!! But you have it now, congratulations!!!!!
Hi GG, at what stage is Tell me about yourself asked?
All rounds but it’s not supposed to be used for decision making at final stage
Hi GG, are the loop interviews all held in one single day or are they staggered over days?
You get to choose
thank you so much Gigi
you're welcome
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 if I am not ready for interview, can I just cancel the interview and prepare it for more days?
@@user-wb9kd1oo7x you can ask them to reschedule
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 okay thanks. I have over 10 years experience of coding. But in real project, we never meet the leetcode problems , just use the very readable code solution. But I am worried about the coding interview online. And doing more practice on leetcode, is that worthy of practicing?
@@user-wb9kd1oo7x My expertise is not on the Engineering tech side. But you will need to do a coding test, so if you're not confident, you should practice
Hi GG, In my upcoming panel , I can see one of the panel member already took my phone screen, is it normal ? My phone screen with him really went well , since he is also in Loop you think I have an edge ?
No. That's normal practice.
I just did an interview some about 2 weeks ago but I didn’t not pass the interview. I saw that the role is still on the job list. Can I reapply for the role after 3 months if the role is still available?
Different teams have different rules about reapplication. The minimum wait time would be 6 months.
Hi Gg,
Thanks for your videos…i passed phone interview and on to the Loop. However i have just opened my big mouth to say it lasted only 30mins instead of an hr and the recruiter seems taken back as not the standard?! Have i ruined it for both myself and the interviewer?
No you haven’t. If the interviewer felt they had enough info in 30min- that’s their prerogative
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 thanks so much for replying…i can be at ease now
Thanks Gg, your youtube content and affordable individual LP course were sooo helpful! I got an offer
@@latona9257 congratulations!!!!! That’s amazing. If you’d be willing to leave us a testimonial on our website, we’d be very grateful

Everyone at Day One Careers wishes you a fantastic amazon career.
The authors of the book advocate keeping answers consice and below 2 minutes. I am struggling to keep mine below 7 minutes.
Absolutely agree with them- no more than 2mins.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 Weren't you saying that it should be between 5 to 10 minutes? I'm confused now.
@@ElPenetrator21 I hope I didn’t!!! I’ll have to watch it again now.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 Sorry, I meant that about answering behavioral questions, not the tell me about yourself one.
@@ElPenetrator21 12:02 I say very specifically 1-2min long.
Hi…
I have got coming interview for amazon logistics scheduler . Just wanted to know what type of questions i can expect?
I’m afraid I don’t understand that question. “Quality” of what?

Hey GG, on 11th of aug which was Thursday according to IST. I have given the final round interview for catalogue associate , and in that lastly HR said your job location will be in bengaluru India so are you ok with it? I said yes . I just wanted to know what does this mean, iam I selected or rejected ? Because iam still waiting for confirm email.
Don’t read anything into it, until they tell you if they are or are not making you an offer.
Hi GG.. your videos are very helpful!!!
I'm from Chennai.. GG i have interviewed on Jan 11th for the role Digital Associate and still I didn't get any mails and updates GG.. what can I do and what ll be the next process please guide
Send your recruiter a polite follow up email requesting an update.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 ok GG.. will mail by morning
GG.
i got mini loop. if i buy your master bundle. how much time to prepare?
:)
My full package is 10hrs of content. You can of course go though it faster by 1) increasing the playback speed (I watch everything on 1.5 myself) 2) Selecting specific LPs to focus on that you know are key to your interview.
@@amazoninterviewwhizzdayone503 Does mini loop (3) have bar riser?
wacthing you master bundle now.
@@tanamedsidthawonsri1351 probably not. I assume you're having a mini loop because you already had a full loop recently but didn't get offered that role?
