Amazon's interview process for a Cloud Architect (Entry Level) typically consists of a recruiter screening phase followed by technical phone screens and onsite interviews. The process evaluates foundational cloud architecture knowledge, AWS service proficiency, basic system design thinking, ability to explain technical concepts clearly, and cultural alignment with Amazon's Leadership Principles. For an entry-level role, interviewers focus on learning potential, problem-solving approach, and ability to work collaboratively rather than advanced expertise.
