I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2022
Interview
There was a two part online assessment, the first had two timed coding problems, the second was a workday simulation with multiple choice problems related to decision making and review of code. The final round was a remote video interview and another coding problem. I'm rating the difficulty as Average because I haven't done any other software interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I'm not allowed to divulge specific questions, they do obviously ask questions related to their Leadership Principles.
Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
