Average interview

Application

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.

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Dublin, Dublin) in Oct 2025

Interview

The interview process was messy, as the interviewer was training another member of staff so I was bombarded with two people, in a pannel interview with a first round first meeting interview jumping straight into a live code demo, with little to no behavioral questions which was disappointing.

Not bad, only 2 rounds including behavior and 1 leetcode medium question. I finished the leetcode question before the time was up and then we talked for about 10 minutes after. Interviewer was very nice
