Amazon Interview Experiences
Softwaere Engineer
The interview was great and the questions were straightforward. I actually liked how the experience went. The timing was ok, and the questions asked were relevant to the topic.
Graduate Software Development Engineer
The first interview was a technical one that lasted 30 minutes. The interviewer was friendly and helpful, focusing on the technical questions. The interview was not too formal, which helped with the nerves.
Software Engineer (Internship)
OA, 3 questions. Leetcode, API design, SQL. Followed by 1 round with HM, easy-medium question. Small behavioral: “tell me about a project you did” + follow ups. This honestly is inline with other SDE intern interviews - nothing spectacular.
