I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderabad) in Nov 2025
Interview
My interview process lasted around two weeks and included an online assessment, a technical round, and an HR interview.
During the assessment, the official coding platform wasn’t working, so I had to write SQL code in Notepad, which wasn’t ideal. Communication throughout the process was slow and inconsistent, with little clarity on timelines. The technical round focused mainly on SQL and data concepts, with some scenario-based questions.
Overall, it wasn’t a terrible experience, but smoother coordination and clearer communication would have made it more candidate-friendly.

HR was good. Use the STAR method to answer maximum questions and the interview will go fine. Sometimes in the HR round a technical interviewer comes and asks technical questions.
