I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2023
Interview
2 round
1st round is oa with 2 questions didn’t pass all the case for the 2nd question, they are both graph related. Then there’s a 20min behavior question. Forgot if there was a time limit for 2nd half.
Heard back from them about one and half month later
2nd round got interviewed with a sinner engineer who mentioned he just joined Amazon a month ago. Asked me a question on how to use Stack, to put on difficulty it was probably easy easy. Have no idea why they decided to reject me.

That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.
