I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2025
Interview
Typical process consistent with reports online. Some problems appeared as reported by hacker rank recently used.
The Interviewers I had felt a bit cold, but that at the end of the day it helped me decide if the team was a good match for me.
Five rounds: logical coding, coding maintenance, hiring manager interview, behavioral round, and system design evaluation assessing problem-solving, code quality, communication, leadership ability, and architectural thinking across real engineering scenarios. Before everything there would be phone screening round

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC) in Aug 2025
Interview
First is online assessment with leetcode medium question + amazon work process simulation around system design. Second round was HR round which I passed as well. And it supposed to be on-site hiring event (loop interview) in Tokyo around September-October 2025, but suddenly process got frozen (I believe, because of layoffs started in Amazon later). And I was told maybe best case they will continue first quarter of 2026.
