I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Irvine, CA) in Nov 2021
Interview
Short talk with recruiter, and technical interview. programming questions were very realistic and were generic data structure questions. Team was for Amazon Fresh, Amazon Studio and Amazon Alexa, the questions were very fair but it is easy to run out of time if you dont manage it correctly.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with your boss.
I received an Online Assessment (OA) invitation from Amazon. The assessment consisted of two coding questions of medium to hard difficulty, focusing on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills. The questions required efficient solutions with optimized time and space complexity. After the OA, shortlisted candidates typically proceed to one or more technical interview rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions based on Amazon's Leadership Principles.
Applied online via career site, received OA link within 2 days and cleared it, Round 1- DSA, Round-2 DSA, Round 3- System Design, Round 4- Mixed Technical Discussion and Behavioral.
