I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon in Nov 2021
Interview
The interview was technical. Overall it was okay as an entry level data engineer. Be prepared to answer some SQL questions, excel and Tableau questions as well. You will write some SQL queries from basic to advance. There were single queries, joint queries and union queries.
The interview process was smooth and conversational. The interviewer was calmly asking questions about my previous work experiences and listened patiently. He even gave me ample time to frame my answers.

1. Tell me about your previous work experience.
2. Asked few SQL questions
The first interview is a technical phone interview that assesses your skills in SQL and Python, specifically data analysis with python. The interviewer pastes the description of an SQL problem on the code editor and asks you to write your answer while describing your thought process. They give you hints when you're stuck.
