I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2025
Interview
It was on-campus for girls, firstly, it had resume-based shortlisting. Then the first round of OA which had 40 MCQs and 1 coding, then the second round of OA had 2 coding questions, followed by psychometric/behavioral questions. Both were eliminating rounds. Then the interview was scheduled which lasted for almost an hour, followed by a survey.

Question 1
Interview mainly had the introduction part, the tech-stack you follow, your projects, internship experience and achievements like hackathons and certifications were nice to have. Followed by 1 hard and 1 medium DSA questions and then some questions based on Amazon values.
It had 2 rounds, and each one had some behavioral questions as well as one technical question. The behavioral questions were about different group work situations that I had before, and I had to describe them. The technical questions were LeetCode medium.

Question 1
The screening round was an online test for like 3 hours. It went well, and I was selected for that. But in the actual interview, I was initially asked about my projects and 2 DSA Questions. The first DSA question was a maximum subarray-based question, and the second question was a finding the shortest path in a graph-based question
The interview was heavily focused on GenAI and Amazon Leadership Principles. The Technical Manager did a deep dive into my approach to prompting LLMs and how I optimize workflows using them. In contrast, the SDE Engineer’s questions were more direct and strongly centered around Leadership Principles.
