It's been about a week since I finished Part 3 of the Amazon OA. I received the following email, with subject line: Amazon SDE Interview Update.

Here is the body of the email: Thank you for your continued interest in the 2021 Software Development Engineer Intern role at Amazon. We are interviewing candidates on a rolling basis and if we move forward with your candidacy, you will proceed to the final step of the process, which is an interview. We are unable to provide specific timelines at this time; however, if you have other offer deadlines, we recommend requesting an extension.

Has anyone in the past received this email? If so, what was your eventual outcome?

I passed all test cases on Part 2, but due to some stupid mistakes only got 6/7 on Part 1 (the debugging). I thought it was still a strong performance, but maybe not.

Any thoughts on what's happening on Amazon's end, or the likely outcome? #amazon #interview #intern

    Update: It appears they're on a backlog. I was asked to give a list of times that would work for my final round interview. Supposed to be only 45 minutes. Pretty strange, I guess they're reading a lot into the OA results.

    I'm in the same boat and just checked my portal. My status is now "under review" which I assume is why that message was sent. According to the internet, under review means they're having people check over your resume and look into your experience (as opposed to under consideration which means you're in the oa process)
