I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2024
Interview
Online Assessment and four rounds of interview in Loop. Preparation for the interview is a Roller coaster but worth it. I couldn’t cover everything but was able to answer coding questions. Didn’t do well in Leadership principles. Didn’t get selected but this preparation helped me secure a job in another company
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you innovated for client? Went above and beyond in a project.
The loop consists of 4–5 back-to-back interviews, each lasting 45–60 minutes. Your panel will typically include your potential hiring manager, 1–2 team members, a senior leader, and the Bar Raiser. Every interviewer is assigned 2–3 specific Leadership Principles to evaluate. Together, the panel covers all 16 principles across the loop.
Interview mainly consisted of DSA and questions on Leadership Principles.
Also slightly emphasizing on Low level design.Interview sort of helped me with the approach and asked me to explain the time and space complexity
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
The interview process started with an initial recruiter screening, followed by technical interview rounds. The technical interviews focused on data structures, algorithms, problem-solving, and discussing my approach clearly. The interviewers also asked behavioral questions related to teamwork, challenges, and past projects. Overall, the process was structured and professional.
