Applied for the job via Amazon.jobs website. I was sent on OA to complete about an hour after applying for the role. I then took the OA a few days later, which seems to have new changes to combat AI usage (good by Amazon) during these coding interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
System Design and Leadership Principles Question, 1 LeetCode Medium and 1 LeetCode Hard difficulty problem with Amazon style.
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.
