## More Amazon interview experiences

- **AWS Product Manager (L6)** — Amazon, **May 2026**. **Verified; 7 rounds; 8 questions.** The candidate wrote: “I walked into this thing with 48 pages of prep, and that still barely felt like enough because at Amazon the first question is maybe 20% of the interview and the other 80% is them asking, 'How do you know that? Prove it.'” [Read the full interview](https://www.aced.io/experiences/amazon-staff-product-manager-interview-a0714f?returnPath=%2Fguides%2Famazon-product-manager-interview%2Fexperiences)
