Question 1 of 30

Why do you want to work for Amazon as a Virtual Customer Service Associate?

Common interview questions like this one often result in cliche interview answers. If you want to stand out from other candidates, take the time to create unique responses that will capture your interviewer's attention. One example of a cliche response is, 'I want to work here because this is my dream job.' The problem with a response like this is, although it's enthusiastic, it's also vague. Also, an answer like this focuses only on you and fails to show your genuine interest in working for Amazon.

While your passion and excitement for the job are essential, it's always good to have some solid facts ready about why you want this specific opportunity. Amazon receives thousands of job applications a day. If you are lucky enough to land an interview, show an effort by researching the opportunity and building a clear understanding of why hiring you is a mutually beneficial decision.
