The process has two interviews, maybe three. One to evaluate the Leadership Principles, by phone. If you pass, the second will be the Loop Interview, at the Amazon Office.
Or can be the first with HR to review the process and a slight screening.

Here the most used questions (https://igotanoffer.com/blogs/product-manager/amazon-product-manager-interview).
The key to succeed is to understand each principle, separate examples then, train with the questions.
Unfortunately, the Hiring Manager was busy then the human resource asks for another person in HQ to do the interview.
Pay attention to share a more flexible agenda for the interviews. I had a lot of appointments and I was a little bit restricted.
I'm from Brazil and the interviewer the call quality was not fine, so much noise and delay. It keeps failing, the interviewer connects almost 4 times during the whole interview. By the end, the English-Indian accent of the interviewer and all those difficulties makes things really difficult, not the principles at all, because I had all examples, cases, and ways to demonstrate. Despite I can talk in English well, all these things together made me fail.
More 6 months, and I'll try it again. :(
Phone screen, 5 1 hour interviews for loop
Each hour was dedicated to 2 LPs. System design was more collaborative than i anticipated which was a pleasant surprise. The phone screen mostly focused on my previous experiences

Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Tokio) en feb 2026

The interview process is straightforward but intense.
First interview was with another Software Dev Manager in the same team. After that the famous loop interview where I had to take 5 interviews in a row over two days ( using paid holidays at work ). Recruiter gave a lot of information about possible questions and helped with materials. However, I had to use same stories few times as the different interviewers asked same questions few times.
Everything is okay, I had a good time during the interviews and it was a good exercise. However, I simply do not understand why they have to call to reject? I am not a customer to be obsessed with. A straight cut rejection via email works better than taking time out of my busy schedule.
If they used this time to share some feedback, that would be useful. If they do not share any reason why I have to continue formal small talk just to get the rejection on my face?

A time you were driving toward a goal and realized more than halfway in that it may not be the best goal.
Had 1 round of System design interview. I thought the interview went ok, if not bad, it went decently well. Received a rejection response, while asking to apply 6 months later.
