Solicité el puesto a través de la escuela superior o la universidad. El proceso duró 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Atlanta, GA) en feb 2014
Entrevista
Two 45 minutes interviews. Started with basic questions about me - projects I worked on and whatnot. They always ask about some of amazon core values. "how are you customer focused?" "Tell me about a time you dug deep into a problem." There are 14. You can look them up online.
Two coding questions per interview. A short one and a long one.
My interview fell on a snow day so I don't know if this is standard but the interviews were over the phone on collabedit. When I was at work my manager conducted similar phone screen interviews. But full time interviews required an on site white board thing.

Two coding questions per interview. A short one and a long one.
It's been awhile so I don't remember exactly.
1st short one: ?
1st long one: Remove repeated elements from an array.
2nd short one: create a circular linked list with a search method
2nd long one: given an array of integers that represent stock values, find the best time to buy and the best time to sell
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.

Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.

The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together

Recruiter reached out and set up an onsite loop after the initial steps. Four back to back rounds in one day. Two coding heavy rounds run by senior engineers, one round with the hiring manager, and one behavioral round with a bar raiser. Mix of leadership principles and data structures throughout. Heard back within a week.

Standard BFS grid problem. Given a grid, find the time for all cells to reach a target state where the spread happens one layer at a time.
How did you answer: Clarified the constraints, walked through the approach, then coded a clean BFS from all starting points at once. Tracked the number of layers until everything was covered.
