- Conducting on-site interviews, participating in debriefs, performing 360 reference checks, and presenting employment offers on behalf of Amazon
- Providing strategic guidance and advice in a true partnership with executive leadership

- Communication; a compelling communicator should be able to effectively engage the attention of executive stakeholders, and articulate complex arguments in a polished and professional manner
- Tact & High Judgement; know when to apply the right pressure and when to move on

- Learn about Amazon’s overall needs across functional areas and develop strategies for individual and team success in the identification and attraction of senior-level talent
- Fully own a portfolio of searches end-to-end, including search strategy, candidate identification and development, assessment, interviewing, offer negotiation, closing and references.
