2 phone interviews, one onsite. A lot of homework after interviews to submit, just like they wanted to get something from me. Very tired to talk to a lot of people
The final interview includes hire manager, senior manager, managers, colleagues and HR. One day will finish these interviews. The interviewer will meet after the interview, and make final decision in two days.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon (Boston, MA) in Jul 2022
Interview
The complete interview process has 5 rounds, 1 screening and 4 full loop rounds. Each round starts with 2 behaviorial questions. However, for your level, check about the details with the HR you are talking to before your interview. I was a lil surprised or I should say was not aware that behavioral questions will be asked in the screening round too. The interviewers are all very helpful, and provide guidance when needed. They definitely want you to succeed and not fail. The screening round was a coding round. I heard back from the HR the same evening. In the full loop, 1 round was design and rest 3 were coding rounds. The HR got back to me with an offer 4 days after my full loop. Overall, a good interview experience.
