Started off with behavioral questions such as conflict resolution and hobbies. Then one technical question about making an efficient money system. Basically given a set dollar amount, what’s the best way to convert that number into a certain amount of coins and dollar bills efficiently.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney) in Apr 2026

Had OA, was ridiculously simple. 2 rounds of technical interviews, small amount of behavioural questions at the beginning, they go quite in depth surrounding what you say, so ensure you're good with follow ups about the real impact. Leetcode easy or a very easy medium
