I passed a 5 round mostly behavioral interview loop at AWS (cloud consulting), I could answer any of these questions except 6 (I’ve never been a manager) and 15 and 16 (they are new) based on my prior experience.
While they are grouped by the Amazon LPs, they are more or less standard soft skill behavioral questions. Almost all of these questions have been relevant during the latter part of my career as the dev lead (2 jobs ago), the de facto cloud/enterprise architect (my last job) and my current job (cloud consulting department).
These are also the standard type of skills you need in most senior dev positions where they are filtering on “scope” and “impact”.
My last three jobs since 2014 before my current one have all been based on my ability to navigate behavioral questions and just have conversations like adults to the hiring manager (department head, IT director, CTO) where we talked about their real world problems and how I would solve them.
