I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderābād) in Aug 2014
Interview
Got the interview scheduled at Amazon office on weekend through my college friend, with employee referral. All face to face rounds. Total 5 rounds. 3 Technical and 2 managerial.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
No question as such was difficult. They build the questions based on input we give. That's where it gets difficult.
Given an integer, find the next biggest integer whose digits are in increasing order.
Example:
Input: 118
Output: 123
Input: 127
Output: 234
Input: 987
Output: 1234
Desing question: Design a parking space to park a car.
Explain my current project. Architecture and design flows etc. asked.
Any challenges while working on the project.
Any glitches/cases where you completed got it wrong etc.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2026
Interview
There were a total of 2 rounds:
The first round was with an SDE II on Data Structures/Algo - Leet code questions mainly
The second rounds was with an SDM Behavioral/System Design - Leadership principles and past work experience impact.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2026
Interview
Recruiter explicitly mentioned that the Technical Phone Screen interview did not contain any Behavioral question but the interviewer definitely asked 3 behavioral questions.
The coding problem was utterly garbage, it was a pretty trivial problem that anyone that knows DFS would be able to solve. That is not appropriate for a SDE 2 role. Not even useful to demonstrate candidate skills
PS: They care a lot more about what you've accomplished than whatever you can accomplish based on your skills
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Tell me about a time when you had to meet a tight deadline
2. Tell me about a time when you had to do more than what you were required to do
3. Tell me about a time where you made a significant impact on a customer
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Sep 2025
Interview
5 rounds of interviews
1. OA (2 Medium Hard Questions along with some Work Related Assessment which tested design related concepts)
2. HLD
3. DSA
4. LLD
5. Bar Raiser
Technically, the questions were of medium difficulty and with good polish, you should be able to solve these questions. The main challenge in Amazon is of the Leadership Principles which involve citing real work experience in the STAR format.
