I applied to an SDE Internship, then got an email with a link to an online assessment that consisted of debugging, two LC problems, a simulation, and then a live coding interview with LC Easy/Medium questions
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2025
Interview
Received and took an OA with two LC medium-hard questions and then a final round interview on Amazon Chime. Did well on the OA and received a final round interview which was fairly straightforward with one of the SDEs there.

Question 1
Describe a time your project was behind on a deadline and how I managed that.
One round through Amazon Chime, asked me to introduce myself and then asked two behavioral questions with follow ups and one technical question (coding). Lasted one hour and allowed for follow up questions at the end.
