I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2018
Interview
Online rounds and one phone screen interview. Asked about many data structures and algorithms (linked list, sort, stack, queue, etc). And asked two coding questions. Was asked to solve them on an online text editor.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in June 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.

Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
