Applied online through company website.
About a week later they contacted back for a phone interview.
The phone interview takes about an hour.
Asked why Amazon, some background questions, then technical questions.
The technical question includes.
1. compare Java and C++. function calls, VM, target execution, language features, etc.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is customer obsession and how do you apply it
Could not use AI during the first interview. The recruiter was helpful in the screener but the coding exam was tough including the take home test. Did a few Leetcode examples but apparently that wasn't enough.
