Process

At Amazon, the interview lasted 60 minutes and was structured into two main parts:

  • Behavioral questions
  • Technical coding

The behavioral section focused on two main questions, with follow-ups to dive deeper into my experiences and decision-making process, following Amazon’s Leadership Principles.

The technical portion consisted of one coding problem, where I had to explain my approach, optimize my solution, and discuss edge cases. I prepared using the Blind 75 problem set, which helped me feel confident in solving the problem efficiently.

Overall, it was a well-structured interview that tested both problem-solving skills and alignment with Amazon’s work culture.

Questions

There is only one behavioral question and one technical question.
