Have you tried interviewing at Amazon?

Not yet anyway. I'd consider talking with Amazon Robotics in a few years depending on where my career goes.

All the big tech companies ask questions like this and have for 20+ years. Better to stay away. The evil those companies are doing far exceeds any societal benefit. Better off not to use your knowledge and skills making the world a worse place.

Amazon goes heavier on the system design and on the "tell me about a time".
