I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Berlin) in Jun 2024
Interview
1. Application & Online Assessment
- Coding Challenge (HackerRank or similar)
Usually 2–3 problems in 90 minutes.
Difficulty: medium-level data structures and algorithms (LeetCode Easy–Medium).
- Work Simulation & Workstyle Assessment
Situational judgment test with scenarios mapped to Amazon’s Leadership Principles.
Personality-style questionnaire about work habits and preferences.
2. Phone / Virtual Technical Screen
- One or two 45–60 minute interviews:
30–40 min coding

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leadership principles:
- Tell me about a time you have received negative feedback and how you handled it.
- Describe a time you made a mistake and how you handled it.
- Give an example of when you had to learn a new skill quickly.
I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
Behavioral questions, asked to tell about how team disagree with me and we handled that. After that coding question: Balanced brackets. Given stream of chars, tell whether it is balanced or not (each opened bracket should be closed). As follow up, asked how to extend code to support other symbols.
I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Arlington, VA)
Interview
They give you a couple of online assessments then a final round to discuss the code you wrote and make sure you wrote it. You can probably find all of the questions on leetcode.
The first part of process was Amazon assessment. Then clearing that, the interview loop consisted of 3 rounds.
1. Technical Coding (OOPs) and Behavorial (LP)
2. Behvaorial (LP)
3. Technical Coding Round
