I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderābād) in Aug 2014
Interview
On campus interview. Aptitude test + 2 interview rounds. The aptitude test consisted of 20 multiple choice questions on data structures(mostly, trees) and algorithms (Big O notation), OS, DBMS (SQL) and networks. The interviews were very technical. The first technical interview generally begins with - 'Tell me about yourself' , followed by a brief discussion on your resume. The second interview is generally harder.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You are given a set of integers. You have to find a solution set such that no two integers, say x and y, is subject to constraint: x+y < z.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
