Software Development Engineer Interview Experience

Process

  1. Phone screen with a recruiter.

  2. Take-home LeetCode questions.

  3. Onsite interview, which included a LeetCode hard question, two system design questions, and a leadership interview. There was roughly 3-4 weeks between each round, with no way to speed up the process.

One of the interviewers during the onsite did not pay attention until the last ten minutes of the hour and asked questions about things I had described in length during my coding.

When I was denied, they refused to offer any feedback, making interviewing at Amazon a waste of time.
