Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Amazon (Seattle, WA) em out. de 2013
Entrevista
I submitted an application few months ago. Last month I receive an invitation to be interviewed in Seattle, WA, so I didn't have any other screening interviews.
I signed the NDA, but the event was great and I would say easy.
I didn't have any common questions during the interview, like solving certain algorithms, everything was focused in the challenge of the day.
You don't need to code in paper during the event, your favorite IDE is included.

Pergunta 1
Signed the NDA. In relation to the book: Cracking the Coding Interview, Amazon will ask about scalability, and your code must be as efficient as possible.
Surprisingly easy — I expected tougher questions, but the coding round felt more like a warm-up. The main challenge was a DSA problem about counting islands in a 2D grid, which led to a discussion on DFS versus BFS and handling large grids. Funny enough, I had revisited that exact type of question while prepping on PracHub, which made me feel more confident. The interview wrapped up with a behavioral round, and I accepted an offer, but ultimately decided to decline it for another opportunity. Overall, it was a smooth experience.

Pergunta 1
Number of Islands — given a 2D grid of '1's (land) and '0's (water), count the number of connected islands. Walk through DFS vs BFS, and discuss how to avoid revisiting cells (in-place mutation vs visited set) and what changes if the grid is huge and must stream from disk.
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.
