Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 1 semana. Fui entrevistado pela Amazon (Seattle, WA) em jan. de 2020
Entrevista
Recruiter reached out via email. First step was online evaluation consisted 2 LC medium questions. Evaluation included a second survey which asked to describe approach and complexity for each of the question.
Was invited to onsite in a week. The process was clear and very detailed. Before the interview they had a prep call plus an hour long session to attend.
Onsite consisted of 5 rounds with strong focus on behavioral. Each round was an hour long. The coding problems were medium I did not find them to be very difficult. The behavioral questions are simply "tell me about a time when you...", they look for leadership principles in your answers. There is a lunch break with a team member who talks about their experience.

The interview process for a Software Development Engineer II (SDE II) role at Amazon typically consists of three main stages:
HR Screening
The process begins with an initial conversation with a recruiter. This discussion focuses on your background, experience, and overall fit for the role. You may also go over basic behavioral questions aligned with Amazon’s Leadership Principles, along with details about the team and position.
Online Assessment (OA)
Candidates who pass the initial screening are invited to complete an online assessment. This stage generally includes:
Data structures and algorithms coding problems
Logical reasoning or work simulation tasks (in some cases)
Basic system design or debugging questions (role-dependent)
The goal is to evaluate problem-solving skills, coding ability, and efficiency.
Technical Interview (Live Coding)
The final stage involves one or more live technical interviews. These are typically conducted via an online coding platform and may include:
Solving algorithmic problems in real time
Explaining your thought process clearly
Writing clean, efficient, and correct code
Answering follow-up questions and optimizing your solution
I completed an initial recruiter screening and then moved forward to the online assessment (OA). I didn’t prepare ahead of time, and the assessment consisted of two LeetCode medium-level problems. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to solve them successfully and did not pass the OA stage.
