I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2025
Interview
I got an OA after 1 month of application with referral. OA consisted of two questions, was able to solve both. Got an interview call 1 month after the OA. The process only had 1 interview requirement of 1 hour which consisted of 2 technical and 2 behavioral questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Interview consisted of 2 behavioral and 2 technical questions like this:
Behavioral
- How do you manage conflicts in the workplace
- Your biggest work achievement
Technical:
- Binary search on a rotated sorted array
- Level order traversal of tree
Interviewer never showed up for the interview. Came forward to the recruiter and recruiting team, was blamed for "not showing up" after providing evidence that I was there and declined an offer for a reschedule. After expressing my concerns, I was ignored and blacklisted.
Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
