Interview
you will have a OA that includes 2-3 questions medium to hard questions (one about sliding window) that are presented as a story of amazon. than if passed you will have a loop day interview where you will be meeting with 2 people from the company and have half of the interview questions about the amazon leadership principles and the second half would be a medium - hard leetcode style questions.
over all nice interviewers but hard to pass as the competition is huge.
