I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2024
Interview
3 60-minute interviews with different hiring managers.
1st one asked for a quick intro and 2 leetcode mediums (
2181. Merge Nodes in Between Zeros and 1190. Reverse Substrings Between Each Pair of Parentheses)
2nd one asked 3 behavioral questions. Describe a moment where you had to dive deep, describe feedback you've received, and describe a time when you would change something if you could.
3rd one had 2 behavioral questions and 1 coding question. Think of a time when you could not deliver something on time. Think of a time when you ran into an issue and had to rethink your approach. Leetcode problem was Design In-Memory File System

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.

Question 1
Pergunta historicas baseada nos principios de lideranca da amazon.
The whole process stretched over nearly a month, longer than I anticipated. After an initial phone screen, I faced a technical round that included a Min Stack implementation question. We discussed design considerations and thread safety, which threw me for a bit. Fortunately, I remembered a specific mock interview I practiced on PracHub that mirrored this scenario closely, making me feel more at ease. Ultimately, I received an offer, but I chose to decline due to the company culture not feeling like the right fit.
