Leadership Principles Amazon

That's why they call them stories.

If you have only 1 yoe, you are probably interviewing for an SDE 1 position. You can use your college experience to answer the questions. This is the expected for that position.

Just make shit up, like the rest of us. They’re not gonna fact check your life history. Behavior interview on “leadership principles” is bs anyway

The key is to have a story that illustrates the principle, don’t worry about how exciting or big it is. Communicate it clearly and illustrate the behavior associated with the principle.

“Coming up with stories” yeah don’t waste our time- not inclined

Interviewed a few times with Amazon and they didn't seem interested in the behavioral questions.

Leadership principles? Sounds like a cult to me.

There leadership principals are a complete BS .. just take any random example from your work ex or project and fit a leadership principles in that. I would suggest prepare an example for each of them while you are in potty

To my experience, they are highly interested in getting the principles right and should not overlooked. I advice you to look at the YouTube videos search for "Amazon leadership" there is a guy named Dan who posted this series of videos. Create a table list upfront with each principle and an example for it. Find the close example you can get, I suggest to go with the truth (at least at base) it's fine to make you look better if needed. Good luck

Just explain one LP using another LP, like I always Dive Deep because I am Curious and I wanna Learn, or I was Obsessed with the Customer so I worked hard to Deliver Results, or I had to Disagree And Commit because of the need for Bias for Action, etc... Make sure you laugh nervously after saying so everytime...
