To anyone interested into making it at Amazon, one piece of advice: read the book 'Working backwards'.
This book details a number of scalable processes used within Amazon. A whole chapter is dedicated to the so-called 'bar-raiser', the process applied to hire new employees. Understanding that process will give you a good idea of how they will assess you, which in turn will make you more confident (and hopefully just as honest) in your interviews.
Besides the valuable information in that regard, there are plenty of other interesting topics. I found it an excellent read altogether and most certainly one of the best non-fiction books I've ever read!
