Amazon may split it into OA1 and OA2 for some roles. Here is a detailed look at each part.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Coding Section (40-70 Minutes, 2-3 Questions)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This section has the highest weight, around 50%. You solve 2-3 coding problems. They are medium to hard level, like LeetCode problems. The system tests your code on 20-50 hidden cases.<\/p>\n<p>Common topics include arrays, strings, graphs, trees, dynamic programming, and heaps. Amazon likes problems on sliding windows and BFS\/DFS.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example Problem 1: Shortest Path in a Grid<\/strong> You get a grid with obstacles (1s) and open paths (0s). Find the minimum steps from start to end. Here is a simple Python solution.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><code>from collections import deque def shortestPath(grid, start, end): rows = len(grid) cols = len(grid[0]) queue = deque([start]) visited = set([start]) steps = 0 directions = [(0,1), (1,0), (0,-1), (-1,0)] while queue: size = len(queue) for _ in range(size): x, y = queue.popleft() if (x, y) == end: return steps for dx, dy in directions: nx, ny = x + dx, y + dy if (0 &lt;= nx &lt; rows and 0 &lt;= ny &lt; cols and grid[nx][ny] == 0 and (nx, ny) not in visited): visited.add((nx, ny)) queue.append((nx, ny)) steps += 1 return -1 <\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>This code uses BFS for the shortest path. It runs in O(rows * columns) time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips for Coding:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Read all input formats carefully.<\/li>\n<li>Test with edge cases like empty grid or no path.<\/li>\n<li>Aim for optimal time complexity, like O(n).<\/li>\n<li>Write clean code with comments if time allows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Example Problem 2: Top K Frequent Elements<\/strong> Given an array, return the k most frequent numbers. Use a heap or bucket sort. Partial credit is given if basic cases pass.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Work Simulation Section (20-30 Minutes)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This part puts you in real Amazon work scenarios. You handle emails, chats, and tasks as if you are an employee. There are 8-12 tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Examples include prioritizing bug fixes over new features or responding to a customer complaint. You rank options or write short replies (under 250 words).<\/p>\n<p>The section tests Leadership Principles. For instance, choose actions that show &#8220;Customer Obsession.&#8221; Always explain your choice with reasons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sample Scenario:<\/strong> A production outage happens during a deadline. What do you do first? Good answer: First, fix the outage to help customers. Then, update the team. Finally, plan to avoid it next time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prioritize high-impact tasks.<\/li>\n<li>Use words from Leadership Principles.<\/li>\n<li>Write clear, short responses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>3. Work Style Assessment (15 Minutes)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You answer 50-100 statements on a scale from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree. Questions link to Leadership Principles.<\/p>\n<p>Examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;I always check data before deciding.&#8221; (Dive Deep)<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;I take risks to meet goals.&#8221; (Bias for Action)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Be consistent in your answers. Amazon looks for traits like Ownership and Invent and Simplify. Most successful candidates agree 70% of the time on key principles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Answer quickly but thoughtfully.<\/li>\n<li>Stay true to a collaborative, customer-focused profile.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>4. Reasoning and Games Section (15-25 Minutes)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This includes logical puzzles, verbal questions, and new game elements. There are 15-20 questions.<\/p>\n<p>Games test memory, multitasking, or debugging code snippets. Verbal questions are true\/false\/cannot say. Quantitative covers probability and data interpretation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example Game:<\/strong> Match patterns or spot code bugs in a loop. <strong>New in 2026:<\/strong> Chat with an AI coworker about ethical choices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use &#8220;Cannot Say&#8221; for unclear verbal questions.<\/li>\n<li>Practice quick math like permutations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Section Weight Table<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Section<\/th>\n<th>Time<\/th>\n<th>Weight<\/th>\n<th>Focus Area<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Coding<\/td>\n<td>70 minutes<\/td>\n<td>50%<\/td>\n<td>Problem-solving<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Work Simulation<\/td>\n<td>25 minutes<\/td>\n<td>25%<\/td>\n<td>Decision-making<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Work Style<\/td>\n<td>15 minutes<\/td>\n<td>15%<\/td>\n<td>Personality fit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reasoning\/Games<\/td>\n<td>20 minutes<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<td>Logic and speed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Amazon_Leadership_Principles\"><\/span><strong>Amazon Leadership Principles<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Amazon follows 16 Leadership Principles. These guide how employees make decisions and work every day. The company expects all candidates to show these principles during the Online Assessment (OA) and interviews. In the OA, they appear in the Work Style Assessment and Work Simulation sections. You answer statements or scenarios based on these ideas. Understanding them helps you respond correctly and increases your chances of passing.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a complete list of the 16 Leadership Principles. Each one includes a simple explanation and an example question from the OA or interviews. Use these to prepare.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Customer Obsession<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders start with the customer and work backwards. They work hard to earn and keep customer trust. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;A customer reports a delay. Do you fix it first or finish your report?&#8221; (Choose customer.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Ownership<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders act like they own the whole company. They think long-term and do not say &#8220;that&#8217;s not my job.&#8221; <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0Rate: &#8220;I fix problems even if they are in another team&#8217;s area.&#8221; (Strongly Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Invent and Simplify<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders expect new ideas. They simplify things and seek ideas from everywhere. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I find easier ways to solve old problems.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Are Right, A Lot<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders make good judgments. They seek different views and work with experts. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0Scenario: &#8220;Your idea differs from the team&#8217;s. What do you do?&#8221; (Share data, then support group.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Learn and Be Curious<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders never stop learning. They explore new possibilities and improve skills. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I read about new tech outside work.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. Hire and Develop the Best<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders raise the bar with every hire. They coach others and mentor juniors. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I train new team members even if busy.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. Insist on the Highest Standards<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders set very high standards. They fix issues so problems stay solved. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0Rate: &#8220;Good enough is never enough for me.&#8221; (Strongly Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. Think Big<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders create bold visions. They think beyond today and act to reach them. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I plan for 5 years ahead, not just this quarter.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. Bias for Action<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders act fast and take risks. Speed matters in business. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0Scenario: &#8220;Launch now with 80% ready or wait?&#8221; (Launch with data.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. Frugality<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders do more with less. They avoid waste and spend wisely. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I find cheap ways to test ideas.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>11. Earn Trust<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders listen, speak clearly, and treat others respectfully. They admit mistakes. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I listen more than I talk in meetings.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>12. Dive Deep<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders stay connected to details. They audit often and drill into data. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0Rate: &#8220;I check numbers myself before reports.&#8221; (Strongly Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>13. Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders disagree respectfully with data. Once decided, they commit fully. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I argue with bosses if wrong, then follow.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>14. Deliver Results<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders focus on key inputs. They overcome blocks and deliver. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I meet deadlines despite problems.&#8221; (Strongly Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>15. Strive to be Earth&#8217;s Best Employer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders create a safe, inclusive workplace. They lead with empathy. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I support work-life balance for the team.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>16. Success and Scale Bring Broad Responsibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leaders think globally. They act for positive impact on communities and Earth. <em>OA Example:<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;I consider environment in product choices.&#8221; (Agree.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Leadership Principles Table for Quick Review<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div>\n<div>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Principle Number<\/th>\n<th>Name<\/th>\n<th>Key Action in OA\/Work<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Customer Obsession<\/td>\n<td>Prioritize users<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Ownership<\/td>\n<td>Fix any problem<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Invent and Simplify<\/td>\n<td>Innovate daily<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Are Right, A Lot<\/td>\n<td>Use data wisely<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Learn and Be Curious<\/td>\n<td>Study new topics<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Hire and Develop the Best<\/td>\n<td>Mentor others<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Insist on the Highest Standards<\/td>\n<td>Reject average work<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>Think Big<\/td>\n<td>Plan long-term<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9<\/td>\n<td>Bias for Action<\/td>\n<td>Move fast<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>Frugality<\/td>\n<td>Save resources<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11<\/td>\n<td>Earn Trust<\/td>\n<td>Be honest<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>12<\/td>\n<td>Dive Deep<\/td>\n<td>Check details<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>Have Backbone<\/td>\n<td>Disagree, then commit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>14<\/td>\n<td>Deliver Results<\/td>\n<td>Beat obstacles<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>15<\/td>\n<td>Earth&#8217;s Best Employer<\/td>\n<td>Care for people<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>16<\/td>\n<td>Broad Responsibility<\/td>\n<td>Think global good<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>How to Use Leadership Principles in OA Preparation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Read the official list on amazon.jobs.
