I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Feb 2021
Interview
I had a really bad experience, not once but twice. I am just going to write about the recent one though.
The interviewer for System design round was not really interested in taking the interview as it was happening on a Saturday evening. He skipped over few of my explanations and was really rude. Also, the interview was supposed to last for an hour, and the interviewer left the meeting in 45 mins as he needed to step out. To top it all, after the interview he asked me to write a code and submit to him offline.
This is highly unprofessional. My final interviews were postponed for 3 months citing date issues. So very disappointed with the process.
And I really hope, recruiters read this feedback and take some action, but I guess this will just be another futile attempt.
And by the way, it's been more than a month and I still don't know the interview results. Cheers to that!

It was an AI round, and I was given a Java and Spring boot application with access to AI and asked to do debugging in the repo. There were a lot of different test cases.

First there was an online coding round, followed by a DSA round.
However, they had mentioned the DSA round, but the interviewer had asked me a System design question instead.
