I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2025
Interview
Cleared the first screening round, leetcode was asked. Not too bad. Loop was scheduled nearly one month after the initial screening, recruiter coordinator changed once. It was projected as AI role prepared accordingly. DSA and Problem Solving round was held by seniors who were nice. LLD and HLD rounds were awkward, interviewers in both round seemed inexperienced since they were not able to understand my AI background. Wasted a lot of time explaining what I was working on. I asked literally a lot clarifying questions in the technical, none of them were communicated properly, very non-cooperative.
