I applied online. The process took 8 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Toronto, ON) in Aug 2025
Interview
Honestly the 3 hr loop felt like a maze. First interviewer had no clue, was texting someone on teams and didnt bother to even understand my resume. Second interviewer explained the entire problem verbally (it was a leetcode hard) and asked me to solve the method. I felt blind throughout the interview. I felt they didnt want to hire me in the first place and just finished it for name sake.

Question 1
Describe an obstacle that you have faced in your project ?
I received an Online Assessment (OA) invitation from Amazon. The assessment consisted of two coding questions of medium to hard difficulty, focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills. The questions required efficient solutions with optimized time and space complexity. After the OA, shortlisted candidates typically proceed to one or more technical interview rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions based on Amazon's Leadership Principles.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
