I applied through university. I interviewed at Amazon (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2014
Interview
There was only a phone screen, no on site. I had two technical interviews, one right after the other. It was done over the phone, with a collaborative coding site open on both of our browsers. I was expected to explain my thinking and do some coding at the same time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you design the control system for an elevator?
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
