I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2011
Interview
I didn't do well in the 1st phone interview. But it was fairly easy. Only thing required is good preparation on Data Structures and Algorithms. The interviewer was very professional and nice person. He called me on time, made me confortable in all his questions. I didn't prepare anything before interview but I strongly recommend others to prepare well atleast for 1 month to crack your dream job.
1. What is stack? How do you implement stack using linkedlist? Analyze ur algortirhm for space and time complexity. How do u make it run in O(1)?
2. Some question on Binary tree traversing. I didn't even understand the question properly. But the interviewer tried his best to make me understand the question
2. Design Book shelf.
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
