I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon in Nov 2020
Interview
I had a series of three assessments, one debugging, one data structures, and one software engineering. After this, I had a video interview with a technical question, and a few behavioral questions, but I felt as if the interviewer was not at all interested in the interview.
My Amazon interview process started with an online assessment that included behavioral questions based on Amazon’s Leadership Principles and a coding assessment.
After passing the online assessment, I moved on to the in person interviews. My first interview was with the hiring manager and focused mostly on behavioral questions tied to Amazon’s Leadership Principles. We also discussed my previous experience and projects. Toward the end, I was given a system design coding problem.
After that, I interviewed with a lead engineer and another engineer. That interview was more technical and included a LeetCode style coding problem. I had to explain my thought process, work through the problem, and discuss my solution with both engineers. Made it to the final round of interviews

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
One online assessment and one virtual interview included a coding round and leadership principle questions; overall, the process was fairly straightforward and not overly challenging for me throughout the experience.
2 rounds:
1st round: 3 behaviorals: Tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you used Gen AI, tell me about a time you faced a problem in one of your experiences
Leetcode similar to LRU Cache but a variant
2nd round: 3 more behaviorals; tell me about yourself, a specific experience in my internship, a time you disagreed with manager/peer on a project
