I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Jun 2025
Interview
1 Technical assessment and 3 Round Loop
Round 1:
LP round
Round 2:
1 medium and 1 hard
Round 3:
Design LRU cache and LP
First two rounds went well, though I couldn't fully answer the hard question, interviewer helped me a lot , third round interviewer was little off, after 30 minutes he asked me why can't I evict from the front of DLL and insert from the front.
I would rate myself 7/10. I could have done better.

Interview by recuriter, Phone interview over Chime with one easy Leet code problem and 2 behavioral questions. Although the interviewer was very casual at the start of the conversation, it quickly changed into behavioral questions at the start.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Encoding optimization algorithm and talk about a project you did recently.
First round is just leet code coding which screens through AI before going into live coding. Pretty simple and straighforward. Not too tough. Recruiter walks through it pretty nicely. Not sure how many rounds there are exactly
After submitting my application for the Software Engineer position, I received an invitation to complete an automated Online Assessment (OA). The assessment consisted of standard coding challenges, primarily focusing on algorithmic and data structure problems. Unfortunately, a few days after submitting my solutions for the assessment, I received an email informing me that I would not be moving forward in the interview process and was rejected.
