I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2021
Interview
2 stages of interview process
------------------------------------
3 tests:
1. 20 min, 7 DSA debugging questions. Very easy if you have programming experience
2. 60 mins (I think), 2 DSA questions. Some challenging possible questions
3. 2 hrs (I think) workday simulation. Put in various situations and have to choose from list of options.
Final Round Interview:
45 mins. Mine was 2 behavioral STAR questions, then straight into very long DSA question. My interviewer didn't really talk about himself nor give me time to answer questions at the end. Passed the interview but am currently waitlisted
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a situation where you had to make a difficult decision.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
One online assessment and one virtual interview included a coding round and leadership principle questions; overall, the process was fairly straightforward and not overly challenging for me throughout the experience.
2 rounds:
1st round: 3 behaviorals: Tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you used Gen AI, tell me about a time you faced a problem in one of your experiences
Leetcode similar to LRU Cache but a variant
2nd round: 3 more behaviorals; tell me about yourself, a specific experience in my internship, a time you disagreed with manager/peer on a project
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Pretty difficult OA didn't need to get full score. One round technical interview with SDE. Interview was pretty easy, most people I knew at school and friends ended up passing the interview. Took about 1 month to hear back after interview
