I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services
Interview
Started with a screening call for one hour. It varied from scenario based to modeling and even sql queries. Overall it was fair . At the end I passed but the headcount was already filled.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Dubai) in Oct 2022
Interview
a very vague, subjective and overall pathetic, stress interview(1st phone screen). the interviewer seemed a very arrogant, poor listener, trying to bully his way leveraging the naivety and submissiveness of the candidate bearing it anyhow for a puny job.
