I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Londres, Inglaterra) in Jan 2020
Interview
2 Stages Overall:
1 - 3 Online Assessments:
1.1 - Find the bugs in 8 code snippets in 15 minutes (Easy)
1.2 - Solve 2 LeetCode style questions in 70 minutes, followed by 10 minute behavioral
MCQ quiz (LeetCode Easy)
1.3 - 1-2h behavioral assessment in the form of a virtual environment assessing your
responses to different situations. Solve 24 maths/logic problems in 30 minutes.
2 - On-Site: 2 1on1 interviews, 2 behavioral questions based on the leadership principles followed by a whiteboard coding problem.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Given an array of strings arr and a word w, write a function to determine if w is valid (valid if w is in arr). What if the array was sorted? What other data structure could you use instead of an array to improve complexity?
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
