      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2024

      Interview

      Applied through linkedin. Received email saying I am moving forward to interview rounds. They conducted an online session to prepare candidates with what to expect in interview, really nice of them. There wre two rounds, one after the other. One core technical and another LP focussed [leadership principle]. Technical had a lot of network security focus in depth and web security questions in depth regarding XSS and CSRF. LP round was entire behaviour based, grilled about situations and judged for usage of LP in them.
