The interviewer wants assurance that you understand how critical DE&I (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) is to Amazon's recruitment process. The goal of your response is to talk about your DE&I training and knowledge to date and express how you plan to continually expand your understanding.

Every year, Amazon releases its workforce data in the form of a report that anyone can access and review. In this report, Amazon states: "Representation matters. We track the representation of women and underrepresented communities because we know that diversity helps us build better teams that obsess over and better represent our global customer base."
Before your interview, take the time to review Amazon's most current workforce data release. Ensure that you understand the alignment between your existing DE&I knowledge and where you can expand your understanding to help Amazon reach its social impact goals.

As a working professional, you should be ready to take your education, life, and career experiences to help you succeed in a diverse workplace environment. Discuss your exposure to the critical topic of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace. Show that you have a solid understanding of the depth of diversity and inclusion in business environments, and assure the interviewer that you will succeed in their diverse work community.

"I aim to deepen my understanding of unconscious biases continually, how they influence my behavior, and impact others in the workplace. This year I have taken a keen interest in diversity and inclusion efforts, especially in light of the Black Lives Matter movement and other calls for equality. Over the past six months, I have immersed myself in multiple online courses, including a course called Race and Cultural Diversity in American Life and History. I took another course on what it means to identify as transgender and gender non-conforming since I had a lot to learn. I am pleased to say that I have learned a great deal about other groups and myself in the process. I am thankful to have worked for highly conscious companies on their diversity efforts and inclusion programs. Some of the efforts I have been part of include changing job ads to include only inclusive phrasing and information. I will continue to educate myself and broaden my knowledge as I believe this topic demands more attention from most working professionals. I am eager to use this knowledge and my inclusive mindset to support Amazon's diversity efforts."
