I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Redmond, WA) in Jan 2025
Interview
First interview after ten years. Failed on the online code assessment. Not sure why the test link said SDE, but the description before the questions said it's SDE II. Learned a lot on what and how to prepare for the future interview.

Two questions, based on Leetcode difficulty, the first one would be rated as Easy, the second one might be Hard, it's a variant of Leetcode's Medium with additional requirement.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.

The whole process stretched over nearly a month, longer than I anticipated. After an initial phone screen, I faced a technical round that included a Min Stack implementation question. We discussed design considerations and thread safety, which threw me for a bit. Fortunately, I remembered a specific mock interview I practiced on PracHub that mirrored this scenario closely, making me feel more at ease. Ultimately, I received an offer, but I chose to decline due to the company culture not feeling like the right fit.
