Interview process

Recruiter was super helpful throughout the process helping me navigate through the process and super responsive whenever I had any questions. Lot of interesting questions asked to test problem solving + LPs related questions can sometimes put you on spot in revealing things that you don't want to. Overall it was a good experience and recruiter reached out to me after a week.

Company culture

Overall a positive and seamless experience. Teams in Amazon operate with LPs as their fundamentals - these LPs make you think like leaders and eventually grow as one.
