Dublin, DublinPosted Feb 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an online assessment with two LeetCode-medium style questions that I had to complete within two weeks of submitting my application.

After that, I had two interviews with two different software engineers. Each technical interview asked me to solve two medium LeetCode-style problems, one involving arrays where a hash set approach worked well and another focused on backtracking.

Alongside the coding, I was also asked behavioral questions inspired by Amazon’s Leadership Principles. I got an offer, and what felt consistent was the way the evaluation blended medium-level algorithm problem solving with structured behavioral questioning.
