I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview process consisted of three rounds. The first was a phone screening with HR to go over my background and motivation. The second round involved a technical assessment, which included algorithm and data structure problems. The final round was a panel interview with engineers and a hiring manager, where I was asked both technical and behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was well-structured and professional.
