I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2021
Interview
Three OAs as many others have described already (debugging, 2 LCs, and a work simulation). One 45m final round with an Amazon SDE who asked a two LP behaviorals and one technical question. Waitlisted 4 days after interview, about 10 days after that I was given the option to ask for a Fall internship instead of summer. I expressed interest in this and got an offer two days later.
Process itself was rather long (Applied in October, recieved first OA in early Jan, interviewed mid Feb, offer early March). However, I was very impressed with the speed and quality of communication with recruiters whenever I had a question or asked for an update. Made the interview process feel quite personal and respectful despite knowing the scale of their hiring operations.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2021
Interview
- Hackerrank Challenge. Two problems, one sorting & one array
- Virtual onsite. Four rounds. All asked me behavioral questions based on the Leadership Principles. They are very strict about providing *specific*, detailed example, preferably with data to back up your results.
