There were 3 steps in the process. There was an online assessment with 2 questions to be solved. After which I had a technical screening on phone and then an on-site interview. There were 4 interviews, an hour each one after another. Two of them involved data structured and algorithm, one of them was based on logic and the other was based on system design. /
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: Given a map with traffic signals, find the best way to reach one end from another.
I received an Online Assessment (OA) invitation from Amazon. The assessment consisted of two coding questions of medium to hard difficulty, focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills. The questions required efficient solutions with optimized time and space complexity. After the OA, shortlisted candidates typically proceed to one or more technical interview rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions based on Amazon's Leadership Principles.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
