I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2022
Interview
The interview experience for me was very good overall. Best I had at any company, the recruiters were in contact frequently and made sure that I knew what to expect from the interview. I had an Online Assessment, 1 hour technical screen, and then a final round of four 1 hour technical interviews. Studied for months and it finally paid off, first software engineering job offer!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
As a new Engineer I saw a total of 8 questions between the various rounds, all were a mix of LC Easy/Medium Questions, also 1 OO question in place of System Design. Always a focus on the time/space complexity of my solution. Also there were always two leadership questions asked by each interviewer.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026
Interview
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.

Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
