I applied through university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
First round is online test. which contains four sections. Debugging section which has 7 questions with time 20 min. Second section is coding which has 2 problems with time 1 hour.
third section is behavioural which has 50 questions with 15 min . last round that is 4th round is logical reasoning which has 20 questions with 30 min time.
Second round is Technical interview. In which they asked me 2 questions to code .
which we should explain them our approach first.

Question 1
My questions are
1) In given Binary search tree removes all nodes which are not in range [-10,13]
2)Given an array and set with length k return max values in array with k as size.
example :array={1,2,7,3,,1}
k=2;
output : {2,7,7,3}
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.

Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Santa Clara, CA) in Jun 2026
Interview
Recruiter reached out and set up an onsite loop after the initial steps. Four back to back rounds in one day. Two coding heavy rounds run by senior engineers, one round with the hiring manager, and one behavioral round with a bar raiser. Mix of leadership principles and data structures throughout. Heard back within a week.

Question 1
Standard BFS grid problem. Given a grid, find the time for all cells to reach a target state where the spread happens one layer at a time.
How did you answer: Clarified the constraints, walked through the approach, then coded a clean BFS from all starting points at once. Tracked the number of layers until everything was covered.
