I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2022
Interview
Recruiter contacted me for the initial phone screen. Spoke to the recruiter. Recruiter mentioned that the next step would be the technical phone screen and sent me the interview prep guide. Its been two weeks, still haven't heard back from the recruiter yet
Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
Interviewed with 1 phone screen, 1 coding, 2 ml design and 2 lp rounds. Most questions were non-leetcode questions more related to day to day ml implementations. The questions were very practical.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Tokyo) in Apr 2026

The interview for the Applied Scientist position primarily focused on three core components: technical questions regarding machine learning, a live coding assessment, and a detailed review of my professional experience.
