I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
1st was a phone screen with the recruiter. She asked me about 10 or so technical questions. Got moved forward into the next round which was the technical phone interview. This interview was lifeless. Interviewer was robotic and just immediately dove straight into the technical questions. There was no good answer. Every answer to a technical scenario was always met by a caveat by the interviewer. For such a large company, I expected it to be a bit more polished and professional.

The interview was smooth. Recruiter reached out with an invitation to an online assessment, then a phone interview 1 hour and interview loop scheduled after that. It had 4 rounds

Question 1
Depends on the domain of the role. I had Networking domain, so most questions were on Linux and troubleshooting.
It was difficult , questions about os and computer network and one easy coding question , the coding question was prime number question, also asked behavioural questions which are to be answered in STAR format
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Ashburn, VA) in Sep 2025
Interview
There were 4 interview phases. The first one was personality based and generic, the following were all technical with different individuals. It was a standard interview but I’d say you get brownie points for knowing their leadership principles.
