I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2024
Interview
Applied during August 2023 and received an OA sometime late January 2024. I received an interview 3-4 days after the OA, and received an offer a week after the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The OA was 2 leetcode easy-medium questions followed by a leadership principles assessment. Interviewer was nice and professional. He asked me about leadership principles relating to my technical projects and we did an easy leetcode question afterwards. Smooth process.
Had one virtual interview with an engineer. Prior to that, there was a online assessment with a leadership assessment (behavioral). Process was smooth. Heard back within reasonable time (1-2 weeks).

First there was an online assesment and two rounds of tech interview where each round had 2 dsa problems which were lc medium and some behavioral questions and project related question.
The interview process was straightforward and friendly. It started with a recruiter screening, followed by a technical interview. The interviewer asked basic coding questions, object-oriented programming concepts, and a few behavioral questions based on Amazon Leadership Principles. The coding problems were not very difficult, and the interviewer was willing to provide hints when needed. Overall, the experience was positive and well organized.
