I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2021
Interview
A few technical questions; the interviewer (senior BI) was in a bad mood from the start and looked overslept. Not a single LP question!
He went directly into technical questions without any courtesies.
1. Trick Questions/General IQ Test
2. SQL Concept Questions (I don't remember them entirely)
3. SQL Queries (I don't remember them entirely)
4. Python Algorithm
After that, I asked some business-related questions but he wasn't really able to provide any input. It came across like they are basically doing SQL all day without knowing what to actually look for.

Question 1
A Bat and a Ball cost 1.10$, the bat costs 1$ more than the ball. How much costs the ball?
There is a patch of sea roses in a lake. It doubles in size each day. The lake will be covered in 48 days. How many days will it take to fill half of the lake?
The interview process was smooth and conversational. The interviewer was calmly asking questions about my previous work experiences and listened patiently. He even gave me ample time to frame my answers.

Question 1
1. Tell me about your previous work experience.
2. Asked few SQL questions
few rounds of interviews ranging between technical and conversational. Mostly in the form of " tell a story of time where ..." to show how you relate to amazon LPs
The first interview is a technical phone interview that assesses your skills in SQL and Python, specifically data analysis with python. The interviewer pastes the description of an SQL problem on the code editor and asks you to write your answer while describing your thought process. They give you hints when you're stuck.
