I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Cairo, Cairo Governorate) in Mar 2025
Interview
I applied for a role and received an assessment two days later. This was followed by a 60-minute phone screen and then a loop interview consisting of three one-hour sessions. After completing all of this, I waited for over three months with no updates. Eventually, I saw my application status had changed to "no longer under consideration" on the portal — without even receiving an automated rejection email.
Overall, I found the communication from the HR team to be extremely poor. Going through such a time-consuming process only to be ghosted reflects badly on the company's recruitment practices. A simple follow-up or closure email would have gone a long way.

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.
