Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 meses. Fui entrevistado pela Amazon em jul. de 2025
Entrevista
I applied for the Amazon SDE New Grad role on May 1, received the online assessment on June 24, and completed my final loop interviews on July 21. The loop consisted of three rounds: the first was a coding round with two easy LeetCode-style problems, the second was a Bar Raiser round focused on behavioral questions based on Amazon’s Leadership Principles; and the third combined behavioral questions with a 30-minute medium-to-hard level coding challenge. The overall experience was structured and professional, with interviewers who were supportive and attentive.

Pergunta 1
Can you describe a situation where you had to make a personal sacrifice to meet a deadline?
Did you inform your team lead about the sacrifices you made?
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.
