Standard SDE intern interview process for Amazon. Sent 3 OAs with the first being a debugging challenge, second being a coding challenge, and the third being a work simulation. Debugging challenge was actually quite difficult, but other 2 OAs are not bad. Final interview was a video interview where I was asked a Leetcode medium. Interviewer was pretty nice and overall a good and clear interviewing process.

Question 1
Virtual interview question was a variation of the open the lock question on leetcode.
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.

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
