I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview process consisted of three rounds. The first was a phone screening with HR to go over my background and motivation. The second round involved a technical assessment, which included algorithm and data structure problems. The final round was a panel interview with engineers and a hiring manager, where I was asked both technical and behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was well-structured and professional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe how you would optimize a slow-running SQL query.
Video screening then interview loop then behavioral interview. the behavioral interview was difficult because they would ask many question with STAR methods, and then follow up questions. I actually never heard back, then completely ghosted me even after sending many emails to the hiring manager, I got an automated email saying they moved with other candidates almost two months later.
Asked a friend to submit my resume, got email, had an interview on a system similar to Zoom. The interviewer went straight to programming questions in embedded devices. It wasn’t really a nice experience, very technical.
