Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA) en oct 2014
Entrevista
There were supposed to be two phone screens, then an onsite interview. I only made it to the first phone screen. This was my first time interviewing, so I obviously had a lot of reviewing to do. It's really important that you verbalize your thought process, and this is where I was greatly lacking. The interviewer was friendly and was willing to discuss/walk through the problems with you.
