I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2021
Interview
There were six onsite virtual interviews. Only one included a system design interview. The rest were behavioural that revolved around the leadership principles. When it was my turn to ask, non of the interviewers could describe a situation that I asked about. They all started to reiterate the leadership principles.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Aug 2021
Interview
A loop with 6 rounds. Design, Tech, Leadership rounds. Got feedback the very next day. System design round might go into solution architecture, customer obsession and trade offs in decision making. So, no need to go low level unless it is an ask.
