I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (San Luis Obispo, CA) in Apr 2018
Interview
A brief behavioral phone interview then a technical interview in an online environment while talking on the phone. They were fairly quick about getting back to let me know how far in the interview process I have gone.
I didn't make it that far, but if you pass the second round technical interview you get interviewed in person on whiteboard coding and behavioral/culture questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Write a function to calculate exponents with recursion.
First Screening call, then initial interview with an engineer (1 hour) and then final interview with four 1 hour rounds back to back with different engineers. For each round its the same, you'll be asked one behavioral question and one coding (LC style) question.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2026
Interview
Interview had a few steps. First few were leadership principles, then OA, and then few coding questions, followed up with some more leadership principles questions and coding for the final few rounds
Super straight forward. 2 rounds with one assessment. Respond super quick. Took about 3 weeks from start to finish. It’s one behavioral and 1 technical assessment. If you pass both you get a offer
