Software Development Engineering Intern Interview Experience - Vancouver, Canada
Process
I took the OA and got a perfect score. A week later, I received the scheduling invite for the final round interview.
The final round interview had two portions:
- Around 4 behavioral questions
- 1 technical question with lots of follow-up questions
Make sure to study Amazon's Leadership Principles (LPs). I was able to do the technical part perfectly (a matrix question involving DFS), but I didn't really incorporate much of their LPs into my behavioral answers, which negatively affected my candidacy.
