I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2025
Interview
There were 3 rounds, each 1 hour and were done on the same day. Each round had two parts; the first 25–30 minutes focused on behavioral questions, and the remaining 25–30 minutes were dedicated to a DSA question. Two of the DSA questions were LeetCode medium-level and tagged with Amazon, while one was a hard-level question. The interviewers were friendly and helpful, never intimidating or arrogant.

Question 1
All the regular behavioral questions were asked, for example, “How do you take criticism?” and “How do you identify the root cause of a problem?” They weren’t particularly tough, but each question had multiple follow-ups and could be quite grilling. The LeetCode questions were recently Amazon-tagged and were only minor variations of those.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Jordan, MN) in Jun 2025
Interview
The interview process started with an online assessment that included debugging questions and algorithmic challenges under strict time constraints. The problems were medium to hard level on LeetCode, and understanding the question quickly was critical. I felt the time pressure was intense and made it difficult to think clearly. The questions tested core data structures like hash maps, stacks, and arrays. There was no live interview after the OA. I received a rejection email a few days later. Overall, the process was challenging but fair. Make sure to prepare well and practice mock tests with time limits.

Question 1
One of the coding problems asked to find the number of subarrays with exactly K distinct integers.
It was smooth and went well. I have been asked 2 question and have solved the both. Have not got the offer and the had received a rejection mail. (I dont have any idea why I have tell so this not the truth so don't believe)
