I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Sep 2024
Interview
First interview felt almost robotic. Conversation lacked fluidity and any response from the interviewer seemed to be read from a list of questions.
Second interview was alright. I didn't understand the question, so I knew immediately it was not going in my favor, haha. But, this conversation also lacked fluidity, and any question I had in regard to the problem was poorly answered by the interviewer. I don't think they wanted to be there, which is okay but felt odd on my part.
Third interview the interviewer did not show up, and I had to reschedule. Replacement interviewer was actually great and super kind! They answered all of my questions about the problem well, and made the interview feel very comfortable.

Question 1
1. LRU cache
2. I don't remember, but it was more Leetcode style
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.

I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.
