Question 1
Tell me a time when you had to take action quickly
First had to complete and pass the OA. After the OA, scheduled an interview. Interview consisted of behavioral questions and one technical question. Amazon uses a technology called Chime (similar to zoom) to conduct the interview and for the technical question you can chose any language you want and its pretty much pseudo code
I had an easy going, conversational interviewer. Everything went smoothly and gave plenty of time for each portion of the interview, the technical portion felt collaborative as well, overall a positive experience.
