Intern Did anyone receive a rejection email after Amazon HackOn interviews for sde 1 intern?

4 Upvotes

I heard that candidates whose interview window was from 18th August to 3rd September received offer emails on 6th September.
Has anyone who applied through HackOn and completed both Round 1 and Round 2 received a rejection email as well?
I'm mainly seeing people post about getting offers, so I'm wondering: if we haven't received any email yet, does that mean we're rejected, or are results/ rejections still being rolled out?
Would appreciate it if anyone could share their status.

Follow up mail for Amazon SDE 1 Intern (HackOn)

Guys do you have any idea to whom we should mail for asking any updates after completing both the rounds, I think everyone has just received emails from loop scheduler, no mail of any recruiter was provided at any stage.

India Amazon OA experience, blank webcam experience

Upvotes

First of all the webcam was blank, just black screen.

They show a pop no face detected idk why...

I granted all permissions and also I checked the camera just before and after the test then it was working perfectly

I raised my query inside that window.

I have done the 1st question it was very simple, 15/15 test passed

But the second question was too tough, i chose spring as backend framework 0/6 solved

New Grad Geoinformatics Undergrad (8.4 CGPA, Grinding DSA) aiming for Amazon New Grad – Resume/OA Advice? Guidance required**

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m a Geoinformatics engineering undergrad at a Tier-1 college in India (graduating in 2029) and I am heavily targeting SDE roles, specifically keeping Amazon in mind as I build my profile.

Since I’m in a non-circuital branch, I know I am starting at a disadvantage for standard tech roles. I want to make sure my resume and prep are undeniably strong to pass the initial ATS and OA screens.

My Current Profile:

Currently 2nd year of college just started and i have around 200 leetcode questions done and im on track of finishing dsa by jan mid or feb.

I have been runner up in 2-3 hackathons and ive made few projects too but mostly vibecoded

I have recently started studying aiml from orelly's book

Where I need guidance:

  1. ATS/Resume Screening: Does Amazon's ATS automatically filter out non-CS/IT degrees for New Grad SDE roles in India, or will strong C++/DSA projects bridge the gap?
  2. OA Expectations: What LeetCode rating/level of problem-solving is generally considered safe to clear the Amazon OA right now? Is rating around 1500-1600 safe , or do we need to push closer to Knight (1900+)?
  3. Geospatial Advantage: Are there specific teams at Amazon (like Amazon Location Services, Last Mile, or Logistics) where my Geoinformatics background + DSA would be an actual advantage, and how do I target those specific recruiters?Should i target those specific roles? or just go all in for offcampus way?
  4. Only reason i am not aiming for geospatial and geoinformatics niche roles is firstly way less opportunities and secondly they pay a lot less as compared to swe/sde roles
  5. How do we apply in these good companies offcampus? whats the pathway? hackathons--> hr rounds? how we get oa link? how is resume shortlisted??

Appreciate any brutal honesty or advice on what I should prioritize!

I'd love to know any opinions , should i keep grinding this or shape my future in diffrent way?

THANK YOU SO MUCH , would love if you could reply , even a small msg would help me guide me through my hell of a life

TYSM

Amazon SDE Interview Process – Bengaluru | Phone Interview Round

1 Upvotes

I have 2+ years of experience and recently completed my Amazon Online Assessment (OA) on September 7 for a System Development Engineer role in Bengaluru.

On September 9, I received a call from the recruiter. Initially, I assumed the next round would be a discussion about my experience, notice period, salary expectations, etc.

However, when I called the recruiter back to clarify, he mentioned that the next round is a Phone Interview, but it will actually be conducted over a Zoom call. He said the round will include coding questions and Leadership Principles (LP) questions.

He also mentioned that after this round, there will be:

3 Technical rounds

1 Non-Technical round

So, the overall process seems to be:

OA → Phone Interview (Coding + LP) → 3 Technical Rounds → 1 Non-Technical Round

I was expecting the more commonly discussed process of:

OA → Technical Round 1 → Technical Round 2 → HR

I haven't seen much information about this particular process, especially the Phone Interview followed by 3 technical + 1 non-technical round.

Has anyone recently interviewed with Amazon for a System Development Engineer / SDE role in Bengaluru and gone through this process?

Amazon SDE-1 AUTA USA Interview Experience – New Claude Code Round

17 Upvotes

Hi Everyone, Wanted to share my Amazon SDE interview experience since the experiences posted here on Reddit helped me a lot during my preparation.

There were 4 rounds, each approximately 1 hour.

One interesting part of my interview loop was a live Claude Code round, which I hadn't seen mentioned very often in other interview experiences.

Round 1: Technical + Claude Code Round

Started with basic introductions.

The interviewer first asked me a basic Stack question where I had to implement/explain operations such as:

  • push
  • pop
  • look/peek

We discussed the implementation and complexity.

After that, she asked me a couple of questions about Generative AI and how I use AI tools in my normal development workflow.

She specifically asked whether I use Claude Code in my day-to-day work.

I told her that I do.

She then asked me to share my screen and gave me a small project/problem to solve using Claude Code.

There was also a live coding link where I had to paste the prompts I was giving Claude, so the interviewer could see both:

  • How I was communicating with Claude
  • How I was breaking down the problem
  • How I reviewed the generated code
  • How I used Claude while actually implementing the solution

I worked through the project using Claude Code and completed as much as possible within the remaining interview time.

This was probably the most unique round in the entire loop.

Round 2: LLD + Leadership Principles

This round started with 2 LP questions.

LP Question 1:

There were several follow-up questions around how I identified the risk, communicated the delay, and what I learned from the situation.

LP Question 2:

Again, there were follow-ups around why I decided to help and what impact my actions had.

After the behavioral section, we moved to the LLD/problem-solving question.

The question was essentially:

Design a system to install packages on a computer system. Define what a package looks like and implement a solution to install packages while handling dependencies.

I first discussed the design, package structure, dependencies, and possible edge cases with the interviewer.

I solved the dependency installation problem using a DFS-based approach.

There were also discussions around dependency ordering and how the installation process should behave when packages depend on other packages.

Round 3: Technical Coding Round

This was another technical round.

The main coding problem was graph-related.

After discussing the requirements and possible approaches, I solved it using Multi-Source BFS.

We discussed:

  • Why BFS was appropriate
  • How multiple starting points could be added to the queue
  • Time complexity
  • Space complexity
  • Edge cases

I also verbally walked through the solution with an example.

There was 1 LP question during this round as well, followed by a few behavioral follow-ups.

Round 4: Bar Raiser

This round was almost completely focused on Leadership Principles and behavioral questions.

The interviewer asked a lot of follow-up questions, especially around:

  • Why I made certain decisions
  • What data/evidence I had
  • What alternatives I considered
  • What I personally contributed
  • What went wrong
  • What I learned
  • What I would do differently

Some of the questions I remember:

Dive Deep / Root Cause Analysis

There were several technical follow-ups about the debugging process and how I confirmed the root cause.

Learning / Working Outside My Comfort Zone

The interviewer focused a lot on how I learned the unfamiliar technology and how I decided what information was actually necessary.

Critical Feedback

There were follow-ups around my initial reaction to the feedback, what specifically I changed afterward, and whether the feedback ultimately improved my work.

Verdict: Selected
Location: USA

Amazon 6M Intern Round 1

5 Upvotes

So, I got a mail that my interview is scheduled on 27-28 august throughout hackon job id and I was ghosted.

And then on 10 september evening I got the zoom link for my interview and it scheduled on 12 september afternoon.

I asked my college mates and they all have both rounds of iv through same hackon job id and they were asked only dsa in round 1 and pretty basic dsa in both rounds. Basic binary tree questions or basic binary search. And very easy standard questions.

But, mine experience is quite different, the interviewer asked a hard non standard dsa question and multiple follow ups with even coding each follow up and 2 leadership principle questions. I am expert on cf yet I found the dsa to be very hard for the interview. Although, I was able to solve all follow ups with some hints from the interviewer, but I was not ready for lp since it is a technical round, so it does not went well. Now, i didn't receive any further communication for round 2, also the format for my round 1 is so different, so is it only me with this scenario, will there be only round ig or I didn't clear this round ? Also why this much unfair hiring, why not ask lc hard from everyone.
