I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2020
Interview
Interviewed for an applied scientist position. Failed during the virtual on-site. Had 5 rounds. ML breadth, ML deep dive, interview with the hiring manger, coding, and bar raisers. The initial 3 went relatively well. Couldn't solve the coding problem because it was not actually a pure coding problem. It was a probability/stats problem. 4 interviewers out of 5 had pretty bad accents. It made it even more difficult for me.

Question 1
Lots of LP behavioral questions like tell me about a time when you solved a complex problem/process?
Smooth interview. Questions are about technical details of my previous research projects, behaviour questions, and the coding test questions similar to those from leetcode. The interviewers are encouraging.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2019
Interview
I applied through employee referral. The process was smooth. However I was routed to a position which i was not a good fit. I was a mrw grad but they made me interview for an experience position. Ended with reject and so sad.
