Hello Blind Community,

I have an Amazon interview coming up next week for Program Manager role and I know that it’s going to be completely based on LP but I wanted to know if I need to have 2 stories for every leadership principle?

I would also love to practice a bar raiser if someone is reading this.

Thanks in advance

    Not necessarily two per lp. You can repeat some across LPs. But better to have atleast 15 impactful stories covering all LPs. You could get questions from the left field. Also, sometimes the HRs might be willing to tell you which interview which test you on which LPs. Makes your life significantly easy

      Yes, that makes sense. What type of cross questions can I expect after giving an answer?

      Anything that they are not clear with. They will deep dive on. Be sure to be thorough with your examples. Don't take superficial examples hence where you only know about things on the surface. Expect to go deep for each and every question. And explain with utmost clarity in the first attempt. Each round will be max of 3-4 questions. So expect 15-20m spent on each q. Deep dive and have knowledge to that level. Know thy numbers and impact metrics where possible

    I did about 3-4 per LP, I also spent a solid week prepping, I still nearly ran out of stories by the end of the loop.

    One of the Amazon sr pm told me that if u must repeat due to impact, scope and best innovation. Just let interview know that you are picking up same story in different context. As other mentioned keep as many story as possible.

    Yes, keep 2 stories for each, internalize LP. In case, u must repeat then let them know, because some stories can cross over multiple LPs. My loop is coming too and got above from a friend.
