I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Fairly standard software questions, asked to code a data structure and a moderately difficult program. Poor description and requirements were given but the recruiter was available to answer questions. In person interview was short and not too difficult. Algorithms and OO design were covered. The interviewers were not aware of my preliminary submissions which was a little irritating. I felt I performed fairly well in the interviews but no feedback was given. I got the feeling that they were not very interested in hiring any of the candidates that day.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
OO Design with little definition, interviewer's English was not good. No feedback was given on my work.
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.

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.
