      How to Answer

      While there is no one right answer, a good response should be specific to Amazon and your experiences. For example, if you know employees at Amazon, you should mention it. You could discuss how their positive experiences inspired you to apply. That conveys that you have a solid understanding of what Amazon is all about. Make your response about them, not about you - focus on how you can help them, not how your career will improve if you get the job or what you will learn from the job. This isn't about your needs; it's about their needs.

      Marcie's Feedback

      Excellent! It's clear from your answer that you have researched the company and identified several reasons why you want to work there. The interviewer will appreciate this. Explaining how you will fit into the culture of the company is also very helpful (and if you want to go into further detail about how creative, etc., you are to emphasize even more why you're the perfect candidate for this role, that would be great). Awesome job!
