Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Herndon, VA) en jul 2016
Entrevista
The interview process was smooth and well planned. Half my interviewers asked logical questions and were receptive to my approach/algorithm. The other half, asked unclear questions and my repeated attempts to understand the questions were met with stiff resistance. I felt like the interviewer had made up his/her mind not to hire me and was being unfriendly.
One interviewer mentioned that he worked for customer service. Assuming he was not a programmer, I answered software questions in a generic way so that a non-software engineer could understand them. At the end of the interview, I got a chance to clarify his role and he mentioned that he was a software engineer working for 'customer service' application.
Overall, I was not too impressed with the quality of the questions and the headstrong attitude of some of the interviewers.

That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.
