I applied through university. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Aug 2014
Interview
there was one online test round .. 20 aptitude questions and 2 coding ones... I did one coding question correctly and the second one partially . In aptitude I think I got around 12-13 correctly.
For the 2nd round they called all the selected students to their office, and it was a pool campus interview (students from more than one campus).
there were 3 interviews, all absolutely technical and focused on Data Structures and Algorithms. The only non technical question I was asked was the first question in my first interview which was "Tell me something about yourself"... thats all ... no other non technical question in any round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions were difficult but they were not looking for absolute answers , they focused on the approach, and once you have an algorithm for the problem You need to code it and explain.
So, it was kind of tough but they were supportive. And its not that you need to get your answers correct but you need to think out of the box.
there were 2 questions in each round ,and each round lasted for about an our.
from personal experience I can say, don't give up just becoz it looks difficult, becoz I got almost no answer correctly But still I got selected for the fourth round. "The bar raiser round".... 6 out of 29 people made it to the fourth round, which will be scheduled some day in the next 2 weeks.
they said we wil either have a job or at least the internship.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
