I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Texas City, TX) in Jun 2024
Interview
The interview experience was challenging, and I didn’t perform as well as I hoped. I struggled to communicate my thought process clearly under pressure, and a few data-structure and algorithm questions caught me off guard. I also rushed through parts of my solutions, which led to avoidable mistakes. By the time I reached the later rounds, my confidence had slipped, and I wasn’t able to recover my pace or clarity. Overall, the process highlighted gaps in my preparation rather than my strengths.
Amazon’s software developer interview includes an online assessment, phone screening, and 3–5 technical interviews focused on data structures, algorithms, system design, and behavioral questions based on Leadership Principles.
Strong problem-solving skills and clear communication are key to success.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Warschau, Masowien) in Apr 2024
Interview
This was an unusual situation. The interviewer was eating something during the interview. I felt very uncomfortable and wanted to leave the interview immediately. It was my first time experiencing something like this. I really can't understand how some people can come to places with such disrespect.

They asked a question related to Palindrome Split. I couldn't even focus on the question because of the interviewer's attitude.
