I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2025
Interview
Phone screening, then 5 x 45-minute technical calls
Phone screening included RTL design, architecture, and behavioral questions
Technical calls were split
- Architecture (just talking through problems)
- RTL design (implement X)
- Pure behavioral
Amazon "leadership principles" were stressed. Interviews were very formulaic and rigid.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was given a C++ implementation of some function, and asked how I would implement it in hardware
