I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2025
Interview
I had three rounds of interviews.
Round 1: Entirely behavioral. The interviewer broke down every question into details, asking many follow-ups such as how much time each step of a past project took. Very detail-oriented.
Rounds 2 & 3: Focused mainly on coding (medium difficulty problems, typical data structures/algorithms). Both rounds also included behavioral questions.
