I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Contacted via Linked In by a recruiter and a phone interview was set up. Was called by a developer on the team and used Collabedit to work out the programming questions. Questions were purely technical, nothing about your background or work experience. It's been awhile since I did this stuff in college, so worked through them the best I could. Interviewer was cool though and answered questions about the company. Going to study up and practice problem solving and try again.

Code an algorithm to find the longest palindrome in a string.
Interview by recuriter, Phone interview over Chime with one easy Leet code problem and 2 behavioral questions. Although the interviewer was very casual at the start of the conversation, it quickly changed into behavioral questions at the start.

Question 1
Encoding optimization algorithm and talk about a project you did recently.
First round is just leet code coding which screens through AI before going into live coding. Pretty simple and straighforward. Not too tough. Recruiter walks through it pretty nicely. Not sure how many rounds there are exactly
After submitting my application for the Software Engineer position, I received an invitation to complete an automated Online Assessment (OA). The assessment consisted of standard coding challenges, primarily focusing on algorithmic and data structure problems. Unfortunately, a few days after submitting my solutions for the assessment, I received an email informing me that I would not be moving forward in the interview process and was rejected.
