“The process was pretty clear and straitforward. As long as coding skill is well prepared. You should be fine.”
“It's tougher and more in-depth on the technical aspect. Expect complex examples.”
“There were a lot of probing questions that followed after each question. One good thing was that the hiring manager was pasting each question she asked on the chat, so that I could follow through.”
“The process took some time to schedule, they made a mistake and scheduled a day where my behavioral interviewer did not show up.”
“Overall experience was average, for last round interviewer was not friendly and he was not helping instead of I ask something they go deep into it ”
“The overall process was structured and professional, with a mix of coding, technical discussion, and behavioral questions based on Amazon Leadership Principles. The interviewers were clear and gave me space to explain my reasoning. I felt strongest when discussing my past experience, system decisions, and behavioral examples. The main area I could have handled better was time management during coding.I spent too much time thinking through some details instead of communicating my approach and iterating quickly. Overall, it was a good learning experience and helped me identify where to improve for future interviews.”
“It was a PMT role. Nothing really exciting just went thru resume and some BQs. And maybe was not a good fit as they are looking for b2b pm experience or with Saas ”
“The role is a TPM under Alexa, but seems really like a project manager role- review privacy features. HM round was very basic, one PM loop asked a product design question, however the interviewer always cutting off the answer after 2-3 sentences; the most strange part was the tech lead round- a pure system design question which didn't mentioned in prep call at all. Wend very deep around 45 mins.”
“Amazon Senior TPM interviews involve a recruiter screen, technical phone screen, and a 4 round virtual loop. Assessments focus on system design, program management, and strict adherence to Amazon’s 16 Leadership Principles. A Bar Raiser ensures hiring standards, evaluating candidates on technical depth, cross-functional delivery, and behavioural STAR responses”

“The weirdest Anthropic round was the company values interview. It was almost like a therapy session, and honestly if you went to a therapist at some point, you will pass that round much more easily.”
“What was very unusual is they didn’t give me any tooling to draw the system design, so I just sketched it on a piece of paper and talked them through it, then we got into this oddly deep debate about whether hover-over history should count as a recommendation signal.”
