I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services
Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter on LinkedIn and had a HR screening interview. The recruiter then sent me an OA link. After I past it, there was a loop interview with 4 rounds each of which consists of BQ and a coding/system design question.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2024
Interview
The recruiter was very kind and helpful. I cleared the OA, which was reasonable, and proceeded to the phone interview. I expected a LeetCode-style question involving trees or graphs for this initial phase, but instead, it focused on reading files in Java and didn’t fully align with typical trie criteria.

Question 1
The interview started with 20 minutes of behavioral questions, focusing on my previous projects and how I stepped up or solved problems. This was followed by a 25-minute LeetCode medium-level problem.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services in Jan 2023
Interview
The usual interview process. Medium to hard leetcodes. Doable if enough practice is done. System design questions weren’t that tough. The OA needs to be cleared first with mostly all test cases passing.
