I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Feb 2015
Interview
The first round was a very simple online test, but you need to be pretty fast because the online compiler takes time. Nothing you wouldn't know beforehand.
The interview questions were pretty easy. Basic oops and algorithms questions. The interviewer seemed to be in a hurry though, and created a slightly stressful environment. They asked me to code on Collabedit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design an oops scenario (given by them) and explain why you used certain features.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
