I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2015
Interview
It was nice and easy. I had to give an online test first - Simple debugging questions (6) in 30 minutes. Then had a phone interview. Was asked about my choice of programming language. Questions on data structures and algorithms.

Question 1
Questions were easy. Asked for multiple ways to solve the same problem. Also asked some behavioral questions.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
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
