I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Dresden) in Apr 2024
Interview
Quite possibly the worst interview process I’ve ever seen. I applied in March and got an OA in April. I completed both questions on the OA and all test cases. They said I’d hear back “soon”. Fast forward to September, I’ve completely forgotten I even interviewed there and I get invited to a final round(panel). They give me the days it would be held and I gave them my availability. They then said it had to be rescheduled because of “business issues”. I’ve tried to reach out to the recruiter 3+ times but they are out of office. Today my application got moved to “no longer considered”. Idk if I did something or if they just gave up on the position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode easy-medium idk cuz it was like 5 months ago at this point.
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.
