Coding assessment was fine. But there was no response for one and a half months after the second online assessment. While they reposted the same position on LinkedIn. Why are they so slow?
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Jan 2022
Interview
Online coding round, 2-3 Technical rounds purely based on Data Structure Algorithms. The questions were of medium to hard level.
The interview focused on your knowledge in DSA and System Design. Better to prepare are hard level questions and brute force and optimum solution with time and space complexity.
Then System design interview round and HR round.
3 or so rounds. First round was debug round, easy questions. Second round was 2 programming questions in your language of choice (chose Java). Third was behavioral round. The first three are automated. After that, they may call you for an in-person interview.
