I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC) in May 2021
Interview
- Online Assessment - 1 easy and 1 medium LC question
- Final Interviews -
2 Coding + 1 High Level Design + 1 Low Level Design
Coding questions were doable, LC medium. High Level Design was also easy common question. I was unprepared for Low Level Design, so I flunked the LDD. Also, behavioural part of all interviews needed concrete technical scenarios and deep dive, which I wasn’t prepared for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Signed an NDA. But all questions were predictable.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
