I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
The interview process consisted of 3 rounds – 1 Behavioral (Leadership Principles focused) and 2 Technical (DSA + System Design/Problem Solving). Amazon heavily emphasizes both problem-solving skills and alignment with their Leadership Principles (LPs), so preparation was balanced across Leetcode and LP-based behavioral questions.

Interview
I was invited to take the online assessment for the Software Development Engineer role. Unfortunately, I was not selected for the next round. The questions were of medium difficulty, but I found them quite challenging. With better preparation, I am confident that I could have advanced further in the process.

Question 1
The online assessment included coding challenges focused on arrays and dynamic programming, similar to LeetCode-style problems. The questions were of medium difficulty and required strong problem-solving skills.
