I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2025
Interview
Overall, it was good experience. The interview process involved the following stages:
1. Offline Coding assessment - I was able to clear this round.
2. Recruiter phone screen - Recruiter checks on whether you are good fit for this job role or not.
3. Technical phone screen - Involves live coding and behavioural questions.
4. Onsite interview.
I received an Online Assessment (OA) invitation from Amazon. The assessment consisted of two coding questions of medium to hard difficulty, focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills. The questions required efficient solutions with optimized time and space complexity. After the OA, shortlisted candidates typically proceed to one or more technical interview rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions based on Amazon's Leadership Principles.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
