Amazon Corporate Counsel interview questions

I applied online for an Amazon Corporate Counsel role, and about two weeks later a recruiter reached out to schedule an initial phone screen. The recruiter asked general background questions about my experience, where I was admitted to practice, geographic preferences, and what type of legal work I was most interested in. Based on that conversation, they determined I would likely be a fit for the “generalist” corporate counsel pipeline rather than a specific posted role. I was then scheduled for an interview with a senior member of Amazon’s legal team who was not tied to any particular business unit or opening. Prior to the interview, I had to complete a writing exercise. The interview itself was fairly comprehensive. It included: * questions about my resume and prior experience; * why I was interested in Amazon; * substantive and hypothetical legal questions testing legal judgment and analysis; and * scenario-based behavioral questions. About two weeks later, I heard that I had passed that round and would move forward in the process. At that point, I was told they needed to match me with a specific team/business group before proceeding further. After that, communication became less consistent. I followed up a few times over the following months. Initially, recruiting responded that they were still trying to identify the right team fit and asked me to be patient. Eventually, though, the responses stopped and I never ended up being matched with a team or advancing further in the process. Interview wasn’t “difficult”, just a lot of prep, without actual possibility of there being a match.
