Amazonian Interview Coach-AI-powered interview practice platform

Example

You select ‘Customer Obsession’. The coach surfaces common prompts (‘Tell me about a time you worked backward from customer needs’) plus bar-raiser follow-ups (‘How did you validate the insight?’, ‘What trade-offs hurt short-term metrics but helped customers long-term?’). It maps your story to multiple LPs (Customer Obsession + Dive Deep + Ownership) and flags gaps (no direct customer signal, no long-term mechanism).

Scenario

For an L6 PM building a returns experience, the coach requests evidence of customer signals (CSAT verbatims, complaint taxonomy, usability tests), then pressures the ‘Action’ to show mechanisms (weekly defect review, cohort analysis, PR/FAQ). It pushes for a quantifiable ‘Result’ (reduced return cycle time from 9.2 to 5.6 days; CSAT +11 points; $1.1M cost avoidance) and prepares succinct follow-ups for ‘Are Right, A Lot’ (counter-metrics you watched, disproven hypotheses).

Example

Raw input: ‘We had outages; I led a fix.’ Refactor: S—Payment service failed during peak (P95 480ms, 2.1% error rate). T—Restore reliability before holiday promo; own root cause and prevention. A—Instituted 24-hr deep dive; built a canary + circuit breaker; rewrote hot path; added weekly GameDay. R—Error rate 0.2%, P95 210ms; avoided $750k promo loss; incident count −63% next quarter. Close—What I’d do differently: add synthetic monitoring earlier.

Scenario

For an L5 SDE, the coach converts a long narrative into a 2-minute script with a one-sentence headline (‘I cut payment failures 90% in 3 weeks by redesigning the retry strategy and adding guardrails’), removes filler, and adds numbers. It then provides a delivery checklist: lead with headline; 20–30 sec per STAR element; speak to customer impact first; end with mechanism/learning. A timing cue and ‘stop words’ list help keep answers concise under pressure.

Example

Simulated loop for L5 SDE: (1) LP heavy behavioral; (2) system design; (3) code review; (4) bar-raiser behavioral. After each round, you receive a rubric-style score by LP (e.g., Ownership: Strong; Dive Deep: Mixed) and pointed rewrite notes (‘Show where you disagreed and committed; add counter-metrics; clarify what you alone decided’).

Scenario

A candidate aiming for L6 TPM runs a 45-minute behavioral mock focused on Insist on the Highest Standards and Deliver Results. The coach probes timelines (‘How did you hold the line on quality when the VP asked to ship early?’), risk management (‘What mechanism ensured defects stayed down?’), and stakeholder alignment. It then recommends a narrative enhancement (pre-mortem + guardrail metrics) and provides a final 2-minute script plus a 30-second follow-up variant for panel cross-questions.
