I applied through other source. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Loop interview happened in single day. Assessment followed by System design, coding - 2 rounds , troubleshooting and behavior rounds. All coding compiled and answered every question. Felt too tired and long…honestly the process is crooked

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2025
Interview
Excessive & disjointed emails from recruiters - was emailed many things three different times.
Excessive behavioural interview questions - ran out of stories. Prep more than you think you'll need because you will end up needing them.
Leetcode medium coding questions disguised as "real-world problems," but they were intentionally ambiguous in the initial problem statements.

Question 1
Numerous behavioral questions on leadership principles.
