I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon Lab126
Interview
Very repetitive questions, they had a question bank to ask from which is fine but why waste my time by asking the same questions for like 5 rounds from 5 different people? This frustrated me a lot.
I did pretty well, answered both the live coding rounds, behavioral and testing questions but at the end I was made an offer with a reason that I did not perform the rounds well so I was given a not-so-appealing offer which seemed disrespectful as I did very well, if the pay cannot be more for that position then I should have been told that reason instead of saying I did not do the interviews well enough which is hilarious as I would not have been given an offer if I did not do it well
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon Lab126 in Mar 2021
Interview
The interview process was:
1) Recruiter phone call
2) First phone screen by 2 members of the team
3) Onsite interview (virtual during covid)
They got back to me within 5 days with their final answer
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Phone screen - 1 hr interview was 45 min leadership skills and 15 minutes technical
2) Onsite was 4 rounds
a) Leadership skills + test strategies + 2 coding questions. I completed one and told the approach of the second one. They were satisfied.
b) Bar raiser: Was only based on leadership skills
c) Test strategies (write test scenario, troubleshoot) + 1 code challenge + leadership skills
d) Hiring manager: It was a conversation about the role, why I'm looking to change + leadership skills
Overall it was not difficult. But the feedback I got was - I was good in tech skills but they expected better answers for leadership skills. I should have prepped that some more.
Otherwise the interviewers were courteous, asked if I needed a few minutes break before my interview.
Quick phone screen followed by a phone interview and a virtual panel interview. Then I added some words to my review of the interview process so that I may continue to be allowed to use this awful website please.
