While we cannot predict every question that Amazon will ask in an interview, the process is fairly structured. This makes the interview process transparent and easy to prepare for because we know many of the themes they will cover and questions they will ask. Imagine if your teacher in university told you most of the questions that were going to be on the test beforehand - all you would have to do is practice. Consider this book your study guide.

Amazon Leadership Principles are the strong foundation upon which this massive company is built. They are used daily in the decision-making process of the company, and all the candidates for Amazon job positions are evaluated based on them. Therefore, it is essential to your success to be extremely familiar with the answers to popular, real questions asked during Amazon interviews.

As the largest online retailer in the world, it may seem that Amazon is everywhere! It is also the second largest employer in the US with close to 600,000 employees globally. However, due to the extremely high standard hire screening procedure in the company, it can be quite tricky for someone to get in and become an “Amazonian” - a term for an employee in Amazon - even with plenty of qualifications and related experience.

Amazon is the fastest company ever to reach $100 billion in sales, and they didn’t reach that landmark by staying in their comfort zone. Risk-taking is the key that unlocked the door to growth at Amazon, but those risks were (and are) intentional, calculated, and strategic. Thomas Edison believed: “I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.” Like Edison, Amazon’s founder Jeff Bezos has also linked experimentation and failure with growth and success.

Getting called for an interview is a golden opportunity afforded only to a handful of hopefuls who apply for a job opening, so you need to make the most of it. Furthermore, too many interview books focus on you, the interviewee. What about the people performing the interview? What are their goals and success metrics? How do you approach the different players? If you want to be successful, you need to understand what the other side thinks. This book walks you through the motivations of the key individuals you’ll encounter, a strategic advantage when interviewing.

Publisher's Summary
The STAR interview method is used by millions of people all around the world to answer interview questions and tell stories. Fortune 500 companies (Amazon included) recommend using the STAR method to answer behavioral questions. Whether you’re just starting your job search, already interviewing with a company, or looking for a different way to stand out - there are a dozen different ways you can incorporate the technique into your life. But it’s not just about interviewing. Any time you present yourself verbally or in written format, doing it in a narrative/story format will open people's ears. So if any (or all) of these apply to you, then you can use STAR to help you with all the following:
- Looking for a job
- Interview preparation for a full time or part time job
- Getting yourself noticed as a freelancer
- Finding consulting gigs
- Trying to get an internal transfer
- Writing a badass LinkedIn profile
- Making a great blog, portfolio, or content to present yourself
- Networking
I’ve helped thousands of people in their job searches and hundreds of (small and large) companies find the right people for their teams. The STAR method has remained a consistent and useful technique throughout.
In a day and age when we are all trying to be heard, it is more relevant today than ever before.

Very good Interview Prep Material
I am looking for a job in Industrial Engineering, and I do not have much interview experience because I landed the previous jobs without much pain. However, this time, I am aiming for some specific jobs and I want to be able to present myself better in the interview. As a Job seeker, I should prepare in advance by practicing to increase the probability of my consideration. So, I went online and looked for books that would help me prepare for the STAR interview. I found this audio book my Misha Yurchenko on Audible and it provided me with detailed information on how to answer each section of the STAR. The book is provided with additional resources and templates that helped me a great deal. I haven't taken the interviews yet, but I will go back here and complete the 'impact' part of my story. Glad I was able to write this review in STAR format! Thank you, Misha.
