Applying and interviewing at Amazon
How do I apply?
It’s easy! First, search for a job. Once you find the role you’re interested in, click the ‘Apply Now’ button next to the title of the role at the top of the page. Then, follow the directions. You’ll either create a profile or log in if you’re a returning candidate.
Fulfillment associates can learn more about the application process here.
What if I don’t have a resume/CV?
It’s best to write one or have one created for you, but you can still apply without one. Where a resume/CV is requested, upload a brief description of your background, experience (with dates of employment), education, and skills. This info is necessary to evaluate candidates. Applications without this information can’t be considered.
Fulfillment associates can apply without a resume.
Why do I have to create an application profile? Why can’t I use my Amazon customer login?
We take our customers’ trust and security very seriously. To make sure that our customers’ and candidates’ sensitive information is protected, our Customer Service and Human Resources data are kept separate. Because of this, you’ll need a separate profile in order to apply for jobs.
Should I send samples of my work (writing, code, designs, etc.) with my resume/CV?
If you’re selected for an interview, we may request work samples. If we do, we’ll give you an email address to send them to. However, if you have public copies of your work available online, it’s a great idea to include links in your resume/CV.
I wanted to apply for a position I saw here, but it’s not listed anymore. Can I still apply?
We regularly post new positions and remove positions that are no longer open or have been filled. If a job isn’t on our site, then we’re not taking applications at this time.
I submitted my resume/CV but haven’t heard from Amazon yet. What’s the status of my application?
We often get hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of applications for our open positions. We follow federal requirements when we review applications, and we contact the people we’d like to learn more about. Unfortunately, we’re not able to make personal contact with people we’re not moving forward with. You can always log in to your application profile and check the status of jobs you’ve applied to.
Fulfillment associates can check their application status at https://amazon.force.com/

Does Amazon or its approved recruiting partners charge any fee for employment?
No. Amazon is an equal opportunity employer. Employment decisions are based on merit. Additionally, we don’t ask for any refundable security deposit to be paid in bank accounts for employment purposes.We request candidates to be cautious of misleading communications and not pay any fee/deposit to individuals/agencies/employment portals on the pretext of participating in the Amazon interview process or seeking employment with us. These would be fraudulent in nature.
Anyone dealing with such individuals/agencies/employment portals will be doing so at their own risk, and Amazon will not be held responsible for such loss or damage suffered directly or indirectly. Such fake job offers shall not be treated as any kind of offer or representation by Amazon.
Please note, Amazon does not send offer letters from Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, or any other public email accounts or demand a fee in lieu of an employment offer/interview. If you receive such mails, please do not pay any fee or deposit. If you’ve already made a payment, please log a complaint with the local police for necessary legal action to be taken.

Do you hire people to write Amazon reviews?
We don’t pay people to write reviews. We’ve found that customers trust reviews written by other customers.
I work for an employment agency, temporary staffing firm, or consulting business. How can I present applicants to you?
We don’t have a submittal process for agencies not on our preferred list.
What do I do if I suspect a fraudulent source is offering me a job at Amazon?
Please be cautious of scams that offer unauthorized Amazon employment opportunities. Our recruiters who contact candidates—whether via text, call, or email—will never ask for banking information or request an enrollment fee. We encourage those who think they may have been contacted by a fraudulent source offering a job on behalf of Amazon to report it via http://www.amazondelivers.jobs/contactus. We actively investigate reported employment scams, and as a result, dozens of fraudulent recruiting websites have been taken down.
How does the stock split impact the number of RSUs in my offer letter?
On May 25, Amazon’s shareholders approved a 20-for-1 split of our common stock. If you receive RSUs as part of your offer on or before June 3, 2022, the RSUs in the offer are in pre-split figures. By the time the RSUs are visible in your account, the split-adjusted amount will be reflected. If you receive an offer after June 3, 2022, the RSUs will be split-adjusted, meaning that the RSUs in your offer letter will match the total amount you will see in your Amazon stock account.

Account Login
What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
Multi-Factor Authentication, or MFA, adds an additional layer of security to your account. For Amazon.jobs MFA, it means you need to give two types of verification: your regular password and a one-time passcode (OTP) sent to your email.
Is MFA mandatory on this site? Can I choose not to enable MFA?
You have the option to enable or disable MFA in your Amazon.jobs account settings. However, for certain tasks, mandatory MFA is enforced for every login, regardless of the MFA setting in your account.
How do I enable MFA on my account?
You can enable or disable MFA in your Amazon.jobs account settings. Once enabled, you’ll receive a OTP code via email during your next login.
What should I do if I didn’t receive the OTP code email?
If you don’t receive the OTP code email, check your spam folder and add the email address to your safe sender list. If it’s not there, you can use the “Send me a new code” option on the authentication screen to request a new code.
What happens if I enter the OTP code incorrectly?
If you enter the code incorrectly, you’ll receive an error message, and the code input field will be cleared. You can attempt to enter the correct code again.
What if my OTP code is no longer valid?
If your code expires, you can simply request a new code by using the “Send me a new code” option on the authentication screen. If you requested multiple verification codes, only the newest one works.
What if I still can’t complete the OTP code verification?
If you’re having trouble verifying the OTP code, you have the option to create a new account to proceed with your job application.
