I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Singapore) in Apr 2025
Interview
Amazon's interview process consisted of a technical phone screen interview followed by a five round back to back loop interview.
Phone screen tests technical depth, and loop interview is a combination of different technical sectors and Amazon leadership principles.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me a time where you had to solve a problem outside of your area of expertise.
Loop style with 5 to 6 interviews conducted over one or more days. At least one interview with hiring manager, one with a bar raiser and rest with people in similar roles.
Phone interview with hiring manager and HR.
Behavioral questions with AWS principal focused.
They are positive and human-centric but I failed at this stage unfortunately.
In short, the process is good and smooth
Followed standard Amazon corporate process
1. Online assessment
2. Phone screen
3. The Loop (5x 1 hour interviews)
While the loop was challenging to prepare for and present, the interviewers were friendly and supportive.
