I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2025
Interview
3BQ questions + 1 coding question:
3BQ questions about: Simplify, conflict, dive in
Coding question: find the compound words in a string array
BQ question are very important, even more important than coding, need to prepare at least 10 stories
Coding interview. then manager interview. standard questions on leader ship principles. not difficult if you prepared, easy. then hr interview with standard background questions. which is similar to other companies
I applied online for the Amazon Software Engineering Internship and was contacted a few weeks later to schedule an online assessment. The assessment included debugging and coding questions in a timed environment, followed by a work style survey. After passing that, I was invited to a final round consisting of one virtual technical interview. It focused on data structures and algorithms—my interviewer asked a medium to hard Leetcode-style problem and wanted me to talk through my thought process. Overall, it was a fairly streamlined and coding-focused process.

Question 1
In my interview, they asked me a question like: "Given a string, return the length of the longest substring without repeating characters."
