I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Pittsburgh, PA) in Jan 2015
Interview
A resume review first, will more focus on do you have any working experience and ask about the experience. Then a few tech questions, not hard but more focus on how I think and what did I do during thinking. There were a total of 2 rounds, each of them doing the same process but with different questions. And I can't remembered the second.

Question 1
Write a code that merge two descending ordered linked list into one, and tell the complexity of it.
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 Jun 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.

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
