Online Assessment (OA):
The process began with an Online Assessment consisting of timed data structures and algorithms (DSA) problems to evaluate problem-solving and coding skills.
Interview 1 – Behavioral + DSA Coding (60 minutes):
This round combined behavioral evaluation based on Amazon’s Leadership Principles with a DSA coding problem. The focus was on both technical competence and alignment with company values.
Interview 2 – DSA Coding + Low-Level Design (60 minutes):
This round included a DSA problem followed by a Low-Level Design (LLD) exercise. The design component involved structuring a small system with object-oriented design principles, showcasing coding clarity and system design thinking.
Interview 3 – Behavioral (60 minutes):
The final round focused entirely on behavioral assessment, evaluating leadership qualities, communication, and decision-making through past experience discussions.
Interview by recuriter, Phone interview over Chime with one easy Leet code problem and 2 behavioral questions. Although the interviewer was very casual at the start of the conversation, it quickly changed into behavioral questions at the start.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Encoding optimization algorithm and talk about a project you did recently.
First round is just leet code coding which screens through AI before going into live coding. Pretty simple and straighforward. Not too tough. Recruiter walks through it pretty nicely. Not sure how many rounds there are exactly
After submitting my application for the Software Engineer position, I received an invitation to complete an automated Online Assessment (OA). The assessment consisted of standard coding challenges, primarily focusing on algorithmic and data structure problems. Unfortunately, a few days after submitting my solutions for the assessment, I received an email informing me that I would not be moving forward in the interview process and was rejected.
