I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Melbourne) in Nov 2025
Interview
Main interview loop will have five rounds including coding, ML breadth & depth, ML application, and a bar raiser round where I was asked only behavioural questions.
Each session lasts one hour. All interviewers seemed nice and friendly but I found the ML breadth questions very extensive. But otherwise the interview difficulty is comparable to other big firms based in US.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked two coding questions one ML related and the other is an easy to medium leetcode question.
Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
Interviewed with 1 phone screen, 1 coding, 2 ml design and 2 lp rounds. Most questions were non-leetcode questions more related to day to day ml implementations. The questions were very practical.

Interview
The interview for the Applied Scientist position primarily focused on three core components: technical questions regarding machine learning, a live coding assessment, and a detailed review of my professional experience.
