Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Amazon (Seattle, WA).
Entrevista
Hiring manager reached out to me on LinkedIn and set up an informal chat where he explained about the team and role. The role sounded interesting, so I decided to give this a try. The hiring manager then referred me to a recruiter, who then contacted me to set up a phone screen. The phone screen went well and I was invited to an onsite. At the same time, I was contacted by another team in Amazon who was also interested in interviewing me. So, I set up a combined loop with both teams.
The onsite had the following rounds:
1. Coding/Algorithms
2. System Design Interview
3. Coding
4. Lunch (informal, not an interview)
5. Coding/Design
6. Behavioral interview
7. Resume deep dive
Each interviewer (except for the lunch buddy) asks you some question which is related to Amazon's Leadership Principles. So read up about the Leadership Principles and come prepared with a list of examples where you demonstrated some competency related to the LP.
I heard back positive news 2 days after the Phone interview and 4 days after the onsite.

Pergunta 1
1. Simple backtracking question related to generating permutations
2. LRU Cache
3. System Design questions based on the product the team is building
4. Lots of 'Tell me about a time when ...' types of questions
Tough interview.
The Process: Automated Online Assessment (OA) with 2 coding questions and a system simulation, followed by a 4-round virtual Loop. Every single round started with 20 minutes of intense, behavioral behavioral questions diving into Amazon's Leadership Principles, followed by 25 minutes of technical coding or system design.
Amazon interviews are a test of mental endurance because you have to switch from deep behavioral storytelling straight into complex coding which can be so difficult. I used Apex Interviewer to practice the cognitive context switch. Running through their live-coding workspace helped me ensure my technical communication and architectural structures remained sharp and automatic, even after spending the first half of the interview defending my past project metrics. I fed the practice AI questions I extracted from glassdoor and gothamloop.
In the end, the offer was way lower than I hoped.
