I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2024
Interview
Straightforward, with one initial one-way interview followed by a 2-hour back-to-back interview. Interviewers were very friendly and made it a smooth and enjoyable experience. 2 one one-on-one interviews during the 2-hours period.
