I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
“I went through an online assessment that focused on coding exercises and data structures. After that, I had a phone interview that included both technical questions and Amazon Leadership Principles. Finally, I attended a virtual onsite loop with four separate interviews: two on algorithms/coding, one system design session, and one behavioral interview heavily emphasizing examples of ownership and dealing with ambiguity. The entire process took about three weeks, and each interviewer was friendly but thorough.
