There are many different ways project managers measure their own success, but you can categorize most KPIs under four general categories: financial, customer, process, and personal development. Choose two or three that speak directly to Amazon's leadership principles. The interviewer will want to learn more about how well you understand each of these key performance indicators and their relevance in your role as a project manager.

"I can speak to my own success measures at a very high level. In terms of the financial success of projects, I keep off-track tasks, do-overs, and scope creep items to a minimum. Depending on the industry I'm in, I would assign a maximum number per week or month to keep myself accountable and avoid further issues. Second, my main metric in keeping my customers happy, whether they're internal or external, would be feedback. For external customers, a regularly scheduled qualitative survey usually works. For internal customers, it's usually a working feedback process between me and stakeholders, as well as between me and task owners. I think that if communication is effective and open, their level of confidence in me will show."
