Interview
There's a recruiter call before they send you the online assessment. The online assessment is 90 minutes to complete 2 questions you would typically find on leetcode or hackerrank. Afterwards, I was put in an interview loop. There were 2 rounds of this, and then 1 round of system design. The last round is HR round

Question 1
Recruiter call was pretty basic, they asked me what my previous experience was, if I was lead, since I was interviewing for senior role. They told me a system design round would be involved after the algorithm rounds and that I might have to go through additional interviews if I wanted to "level up". Most likely, based on performance, they would put you at mid level if you did not come from FAANG. I'm not supposed to share the questions, but there was 1 question you would find from blind 75, and one question that was NOT on blind 75. I did not make it to the system design round
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2023
Interview
I got all the coding questions right. Unless you are Indian and male, you will face bias and discrimination during the interview process. I had one interviewer run their mouths for 10 minutes in the final coding assessment, which I eventually got right, but to add a third statement, and ran 10 minutes just rambling for something that is not even objectivity what the question asked for.

1. Create a Hash Set 2. Create an Employee class and implement a DFS for a tree 3. Create a series of functions to apply for a Linux OS.
Went well, the white boarding was a good conversation between the two of us while I worked out the question. I assume this is different between branches but the AWS gateway division was nice
