I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2025
Interview
There were 3 rounds, each 1 hour and were done on the same day. Each round had two parts; the first 25–30 minutes focused on behavioral questions, and the remaining 25–30 minutes were dedicated to a DSA question. Two of the DSA questions were LeetCode medium-level and tagged with Amazon, while one was a hard-level question. The interviewers were friendly and helpful, never intimidating or arrogant.

Question 1

The LeetCode questions were recently Amazon-tagged and were only minor variations of those.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
