Interview
The interview happened in a very friendly atmosphere. The interviewer tried to give me many chances in terms of technical interviews as well as behavioral interviews. I wasn't prepared enough cuz I had 4 midterms at that day. Couldn't solve the coding questions, but he was trying to give me chances to explain the recent project or about the midterm under my difficult conditions
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2025
Interview
The interview process started with an online coding assessment on platforms like Hackerrank, focused on data structures and algorithms (arrays, strings, trees, and dynamic programming). After clearing the assessment, I had two virtual technical interviews with Amazon engineers. Each interview lasted about 45 minutes and involved solving medium to hard-level coding questions, followed by behavioral questions based on the Amazon Leadership Principles. The overall process was structured, supportive, and communication from recruiters was clear.
