Interview
I remember the Amazon software engineering intern interview process only vaguely since it was quite a long time ago. It included a phone screen with coding questions, followed by technical interviews focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving. There were also some behavioral questions centered around Amazon’s leadership principles. The whole process felt structured but intense, and although the details blur with time, I recall the emphasis on both technical skills and cultural fit.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2025
Interview
For SDE 1, the coding part consisted of 2 questions to be completed in 70 min. Both can be expected to be of Medium difficulty. Amazon also loves their DP questions so make sure to prepare those.
The interview process contains all the typical rounds that you can find information over the internet from various sources and it can be easy for the people who have a good problem solving and sometimes it can be a little bit hard.
