Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 1 dia. Fui entrevistado pela Amazon (Lake Forest, CA) em jan. de 2011
Entrevista
Posted resume online, about a week later got a call from Amazon's recruiter, a phone screen was setup for the following week. the phone screen went well, the interviewer was friendly. mostly asked about the past projectes, e.g.
1. what's the most challenging part about the project? how is so?
2. looking back what design change you would like to make?
then some OOP questions such as what is encapsulation? why it's good? what pops up when you review other's code. a few algo questions like set/multiset, runtime of searching a bst, worst case.
did a coding test, writing a function when given an integer, test if the string representing the int is palindromic.

Pergunta 1
when looking back, what is the design change you would have made?
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.
