I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
I found it quite challenging to communicate in English with the Eastern European interviewer. Throughout the conversation, I had to repeat myself multiple times to clarify my points, and even then, I often felt that my explanations were not fully understood. This made it difficult to convey my thought process clearly, especially when describing the steps I took.
Had one virtual interview with an engineer. Prior to that, there was a online assessment with a leadership assessment (behavioral). Process was smooth. Heard back within reasonable time (1-2 weeks).

The interviewer asked basic coding questions, object-oriented programming concepts, and a few behavioral questions based on Amazon Leadership Principles. The coding problems were not very difficult, and the interviewer was willing to provide hints when needed. Overall, the experience was positive and well organized.
