Didn't pass the behavior interview. They have behavior questions in each round. Hard to find non duplicate examples. Their leadership principles are even contradictory to each other. How can you simplify and deep dive at the same time?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Did you make any decisions without letting your manager know?
Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
Interviewed with 1 phone screen, 1 coding, 2 ml design and 2 lp rounds. Most questions were non-leetcode questions more related to day to day ml implementations. The questions were very practical.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Tokyo) in Apr 2026
Interview
The interview for the Applied Scientist position primarily focused on three core components: technical questions regarding machine learning, a live coding assessment, and a detailed review of my professional experience.
