Process

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.

I made it to the final round of interviews.
