I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Sept 2024
Interview
Online Assessment and four rounds of interview in Loop. Preparation for the interview is a Roller coaster but worth it. I couldn’t cover everything but was able to answer coding questions. Didn’t do well in Leadership principles. Didn’t get selected but this preparation helped me secure a job in another company
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you innovated for client? Went above and beyond in a project.
I received an Online Assessment (OA) invitation from Amazon. The assessment consisted of two coding questions of medium to hard difficulty, focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills. The questions required efficient solutions with optimized time and space complexity. After the OA, shortlisted candidates typically proceed to one or more technical interview rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions based on Amazon's Leadership Principles.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
