I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Madrid) in Sep 2025
Interview
First round: 2 coding tasks similar to LeetCode
Second round: Work simulation, personality quizes
Third round: Interview, live coding task
Fourth (and last) round: 3 interviews (one with 2 live coding tasks, one with personal questions, one with 1 live coding task and personal questions)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you failed something. How did you react and what did you do to solve it?
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.
