Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fui entrevistado pela Amazon (Seattle, WA) em jun. de 2017
Entrevista
Interviewed for AWS team.
First round was a 2 question online screen. Both questions were not that hard. One was related to strings and other was DFS.
Was invited on-site after the online-test. They put me in a good hotel in Downtown Seattle. Had 4 rounds back to back. Questions were easy. One was a hard round with DP (bar raiser?)
Didn't get the offer. Sad thing is they don't give feedback. Even though you nail the technical questions, the behavioral ones are a pain where you have to imagine being in a situation even if you have not experienced it at work before.
Tips: Practice strings, trees, graphs, linked lists, DPs, System Design, and behavioral.
Sources for prep: CTCI, Leetcode
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.

Pergunta 1
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.
