Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Entrevista
2 phone interviews followed by 4-5 online interviews
It was clear from the interview that this is not a real Data Scientist job. It is business analyst job disguised as data scientist since that title is better for marketing to gullible candidates.
Interviewers were from a mediocre background/MBAs from unheard-of business schools. Same with "Data Scientist" peers who were apparently hired from Indian BPO/IT companies.

SQL merges joins, how will you apply machine learning to a business case, explain the algorithm and why you chose it, how have you applied amazon's leadership principles to real life scenarios
Compensation offered was ridiculously lower than what a decent company would offer for DS profiles. Interviewing was a waste of time. Needless to say I declined the offer.
There are three rounds in total. The process begins with a coding round, followed by the main interview loop, where you will meet the team and discuss technical skills, experience, and fit.
First round is fun, second round, which is also the final round involved 5 sessions, with different focus. For some sessions, not be able to present my story completely, time was tight, and interviewers were rushing.
4 rounds:
ML breadth + Depth: Conceptual knowledge about ML and work experience discussion
Problem solving: Leetcode (Medium) + Basic ML concepts
Design + LP round: Use case discussion + Behavioural questions
Bar Raiser - LP round: Behavioural questions - Interviewer was non technical
