I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2024
Interview
1 OA, then one 3 round interview. OA was hard but you did not need 100% to advance and multiple people i knew passed without passing all test cases. Final round was 1 LLD, 1 behavioral and one leetcode round with 2 med-hard questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you were already halfway through a project when you realized something was wrong and had to redo/ go in a different direction.
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sídney)
Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.
