Ok...here is what to expect
1. Easy interview
2. One 2 on 1 interview where they will push really hard to throw you off balance
3. One techy interview...be ready to explain your decision. Also aws is hands on so be ready to get into the tech
4. One medium difficulty interview

I got through it all and realized that they weren't for me. But I'd say it was a beneficial interview as i know understand what cloud companies look for, which will hopefully make interviewing at somewhere else easier

Be patient. The on-site interview process is long and grueling. They really focus on their leadership principles and the probe in really deep on each and every response you give.

Understand a specific product of AWS, the history and growth trajectory of AWS. Helps to know recent news/competitors. Tie personal anecdotes to the leadership principles. You got this!
