I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Applied online and eventually received an email about 6-8 weeks later to begin the process. Went through two online coding assessments before being flown out to Seattle for an onsite interview. The onsite interview grouped candidates into teams to work on a sample project where every member would work on a component.
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.
Interview questions [1]
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
