The interview process at Amazon Web Services (AWS) typically consists of several stages designed to evaluate both technical skills and cultural fit. Here’s an overview:
Initial Screening: This usually involves a phone or video call with a recruiter to discuss your background, experience, and interest in AWS.
Technical Phone Screen: One or two phone interviews with an AWS engineer focusing on technical skills, including coding, algorithms, and system design. You may be asked to solve problems using an online coding platform.
Onsite Interviews: A series of interviews at an AWS office or virtually, including:
Technical Interviews: In-depth coding, system design, and problem-solving questions. This can include whiteboarding sessions or live coding.
Behavioral Interviews: Questions based on the Amazon Leadership Principles to assess cultural fit. You’ll need to provide examples from your past experiences.
Role-Specific Interviews: Depending on the position, you might face additional interviews focusing on domain-specific knowledge.

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.
