I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2021
Interview
The interviewers didn't give proper feedback at all. They seemed to go along with my reasoning but rejected me without any good reason. Also, the recruiters were way off in explaining what was expected at the interview. Didn't expect this from Amazon!
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2021
Interview
The process was well designed.
The first round consisted on a phone interview. I have been asked in depth questions about my research projects that I listed in the resume. Then I was given a coding question. Finally, I have been asked several behavioral questions.
Second round was a phone interview as well. I have been asked some ML design questions . Then a hard coding problem and finally some behavioral questions.

Question 1
- Coding problem about dynamic programming.

I got a phone screening by a hiring manager, which included the following three types of questions:
- Brief introduction (e.g., "why do you want to change jobs?")
- Data science question (e.g., "create a classifier for a task where ...")
- Simple coding question (it is like a LC-easy)
