I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2017
Interview
Good and to the point. The interviewer explained what to expect. The questions were clear and to the point. I think the interviewer was not a native english speaker, so I had some trouble understanding some questions and had to ask to repeat the questions.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2026
Interview
You do 4 back to back interview in 1 day. It was exhausting. Besides that really appreciated the recruiter giving out interview prep before it takes place. The good thing is there is no coding round.
The interview process was very challenging and thorough. The questions required deep technical knowledge and problem-solving under pressure. While tough, it was fair and tested real-world skills, communication, and adaptability.
