I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Vancouver, BC) in Jun 2026
Interview
Consisted of an Online Assessment and two back-to-back 1-hour interviews.
Around ~30 min of behavioral and technical in each interview.
Behavioral - I was asked questions such as describe a conflict and how you dealt with it, etc. Fairly common interview questions. Make sure to tie into Amazon LP's and USE STAR.
Technical -
Received a common leetcode medium question which I solved with optimal solution.
Also received an API / sysdesign solution. Solved with follow-up.
