Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon Web Services
Entrevista
5x 1 hour interviews.
1x culture fit
1x building up data structures and talking about system design of how I would implement something (the interview asked me to create something based on what I told him about my experience, eg. I build POS systems, He then asked me to show him the models and flow for part of the POS)
1x 2D array/Grid - like rotting oranges if you´ve done your leetcodes
1x BFS
1x Design topics and experience - this was with the manager. What did you do in this project, why this design, what could you do differently.
Entrevista
The process consisted of one long homework assignment as the initial screening. Once passed, I was invited to a single interview day divided into two rounds:
Round 1: Conducted by two interviewers.
Round 2: Conducted by a Senior Developer.
Both rounds followed a similar format, each including 2 behavioral/personal questions followed by 1 coding/technical question.

Entrevista
Stage 1 — Application
You apply through the Amazon Careers portal (AWS roles route through Amazon University Talent Acquisition for new grads). New grad postings tend to open in waves, with a lot of activity in fall and again in winter/spring.Stage 2 — Online Assessment (OA)
Within 1–2 weeks of applying, you'll typically get an OA link with a few days to complete it. It usually has two parts: two coding problems (often one easy + one medium, leetcode-style, focused on data structures and algorithms), followed by a work simulation / work-style assessment where you respond to email-style scenarios that probe how you'd handle real workplace situations against Amazon's Leadership Principles.Stage 3 — Phone screen (sometimes)
Some candidates report a single technical phone screen between the OA and the final loop, but many go directly from OA to the virtual onsite.Stage 4 — Virtual Onsite ("the Loop")
This is the main event: typically 2–3 back-to-back interviews, each 45–60 minutes. Each round generally follows the same pattern — roughly half behavioral, half technical:
Recruiter Screen: A 20-minute "vibe check" on your background and salary.
Technical Assessment: A timed coding challenge or a logic-based brainteaser.
The "Onsite" (Virtual or In-Person): 3–4 back-to-back rounds covering system design and behavioral "tell me about a time" questions.
Bar Raiser: A final interview with a neutral party to ensure you meet the company's high standards.
