I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
The recruitment process is poorly managed. The recruiter might as well be a machine, Only email communications based on standard templates, The only modification they have to do is date and time. Nobody explains the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interviewers have great talent in asking you questions outside your resume and skill sets. It is easy to identify the interviewers background. The questions they ask are around their own skill sets/background and not on the candidates profile or experience. If you want to ask hypothetical questions, you might as well ask random questions around Rocket science or Medicine.
Few rounds of interview, mixed with behavioral and technical questions to showcase you knowledge of building system on aws. They also asked gen ai questions on how you would create these systems
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2026
Interview
You do 4 back to back interview in 1 day. It was exhausting. Besides that really appreciated the recruiter giving out interview prep before it takes place. The good thing is there is no coding round.
The interview process was very challenging and thorough. The questions required deep technical knowledge and problem-solving under pressure. While tough, it was fair and tested real-world skills, communication, and adaptability.
