OA with 2 questions then onsite with 3 rounds consisting of coding and behavioral questions. Got scheduled for onsite roughly 3 months after I took the OA. Practice your behavioral round and memorize leadership principles as Amazon values behavioral more than other tech companies.
Great interview process, interviewer was supportive and giving hints to solve the question , the major focus of amazon was on DSA so practice it well and solve a bunch of dsa questions to be familiar with iit.
