SEVENTY FIVE MINUTES · amazon · LONDON & ONLINE
Want to break into film, tech, AI, advertising, data or sales? Amazon do all of it. And this month they are opening the door.
Seventy five minutes with people who actually work there. Mock interviews on some dates, speed mentoring on others. Three sessions left this September, in person at their London office or online from anywhere in the UK.
Places by application. You do not need to be a coder. You do not need contacts. You just need to want in.
THE PERCEPTION BREAKER
Amazon is bigger than the parcel.
They own James Bond.
They bought MGM Studios, which also brings Rocky and Legally Blonde,
and they make television and film in the UK at Bray and Shepperton.
That is the bit most people do not know. Here is the rest.
If you want to work in film or TV, Amazon MGM Studios, Prime Video, and studios in Hertfordshire and Surrey.
If you want to work in music, audio or podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, and Wondery, which makes some of the biggest podcasts in the world
If you want to work in fashion, one of the largest fashion businesses in the UK.
If you want to work in AI, Amazon Web Services runs a large share of the internet and is where a lot of the AI you keep hearing about actually sits.
If you want to work in healthcare, Amazon Pharmacy.
If you want to work in retail or food, Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh.
If you want to work in gaming, Twitch, and Amazon's own games studios.
If you want to work in sport, Prime Sports, showing live football and more.
If you want to work in advertising or marketing, one of the largest advertising businesses in the world, which almost nobody has heard of.
If you want to work in engineering, robotics, devices like Alexa and Kindle and Fire, Zoox which is self-driving cars, and Kuiper which is satellites.
If you want to work in sustainability, an entire function, and a set of public commitments they have to hit.
If you want to work in law, policy, PR or property, all of it is here, because a company this size needs every one of those.
More than 75,000 people work for Amazon in the UK. They were third in the Department for Education's list of top apprenticeship providers for 2025.
You might be interviewed by someone who works on a Bond film, someone who runs a warehouse network, or someone who reads job applications for a living.
So the question is not whether there is a job here for someone like you. It is which one.
THE ACCESS TRUTH
It was never that you were not good enough. It was that no one made the call.
It was never that you were not good enough. It was that no one made the call.
Most people who are good at interviews got that way because someone at home had done interviews before and talked them through it. Not talent, not effort. Someone at the kitchen table who already knew how it worked.
This is the same thing, without needing to know anyone.
PICTURE IT
Picture your next interview, already knowing what they want to hear.
A week earlier you sat opposite someone who runs those interviews for a living, and they told you honestly, to your face. You have a name saved in your phone at a company you had written off as out of reach. And for once, you are not the one trying to work it all out alone.
None of that takes luck. It takes one morning in September.
Two ways in, and both put you in the room instead of the audience.
Your date decides your format.
Mock Interviews
Your first interview should not be your first interview.
Sit a real interview with someone who runs them for a living, then hear the honest feedback most people never get.
They start by finding your wow: the thing about you that makes an interviewer remember you after you have left the room. Most people have one and have never been shown how to say it out loud. Then they help you build your answers around it.
Nothing goes on a record. You are not being assessed, there is no score, and nothing you say affects any application to Amazon or anywhere else. The whole point is that it is safe to be bad at it.
Mentoring and Speed networking.
You move from one person to the next, so you leave having had a whole panel of mentors in one session rather than one person's opinion.
The time is yours and you decide what it is for.
Ask how they actually got in. Find out what a job involves day to day, before you spend three years training for it. Put a problem in front of someone with no stake in the answer and get told the truth. Get feedback on your CV, your LinkedIn, an application you cannot get right, or the way you talk about yourself.
Or use the whole thing on one question that has been bothering you for months.
You set the agenda. They are there to be useful to you, and they gave up part of a working day to do it.
Nobody arrives knowing anyone. It is built that way on purpose, so there is no standing around working out who to approach.
One session left. Choose your date.
In person sessions are at Amazon's London office, 1 Worship Street, EC2A 2AB. Liverpool Street and Old Street are both a few minutes' walk.
Places are limited on every session. Apply for the date you can definitely make.
THE JOBS
You don't need to code.
You just need a way in.
Most jobs at Amazon's offices are not technical. There are people who decide what Amazon sells and negotiate with the brands. People who run a product or a project from start to finish. People in HR, which Amazon calls PXT, and inside that, the recruiters who decide who gets interviewed.
Supply chain and operations, which is enormous and is often the fastest route in. Finance. Data and analytics, which is where a lot of entry level hiring sits. Sales, because AWS sells to businesses and almost nobody thinks of Amazon as a sales employer. Advertising and marketing. Customer experience. Designers and researchers who work out how the apps and devices feel to use. People who produce the shows. Lawyers, communications, public policy, sustainability, and the teams who find and build the sites.

THE JOBS
They started exactly where you are.
"This was really transformational for me."
Freya came to one of our employer days unsure how to break into her field. She left, applied, reached the final stage at a major firm, and was offered a graduate scheme in consulting.
The people already inside do not have something you lack. They just got the introduction first.
THE JOBS
This is for you if no one in your world could open this door.
YOU QUALIFY IF:
Aged 16 to 30
Holding the right to work in the UK
Able to reach London on your chosen date, or join online from anywhere in the UK
You do not need to be at university. You do not need a degree. You do not need to be applying to Amazon, because interview skills are interview skills.
Here's exactly how you get a place.
A place here is something you keep, not something you park. Once we offer it, we hold it for you.
And if life gets in the way, and sometimes it does, just tell us. No reason needed, no judgement. We pass it to someone waiting.
Before you talk yourself out of it.
No contacts needed. That's the whole point of this.
No polished CV required. Come as you are. Bring one if you want feedback on it.
No need to know exactly what you want yet.
Most people do not, and that is what the conversation is for.
No cost. For the in person sessions you cover your own travel, so work that out before you apply rather than after.
Something might stop you? Travel, work, caring for someone, or anything you need in order to take part, including a quiet space or step free access. Tell us on the form and we will see what we can do. It will not count against you.
Your introduction is finally on the table. Take it.
Three sessions left this month. Places are limited on each one and the earliest date goes first.
You have waited long enough. So walk through the door.
