I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Chennai) in Feb 2025
Interview
The interview process, was very smooth, the first step was to clear the OA and then a Chime interview was scheduled by the interviewer, my first interview had some technical issues on both sides, so the interviewer requested me to reschedule the interview and the rescheduling process went smoothly and I was able to attend the interview this time without any problems.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions asked were dp, graph and medium-hard string problems
Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
