First there is an automated coding test: 2 questions 90 minutes, followed by (virtual) on-site interviews: 4 total 1 hour each. Behavioural questions based on STAR method for the Amazon Leadership principles, and coding challenge. No system design interview for me.

Question 1
Tell me about a time that you received negative feedback, how do you handle 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.

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
