      Application

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Nov 2012

      Interview

      Contacted by company recruiter via LinkedIn. Scheduled for a 1 hour interview. The information was very complete and the schedules were flexible. The interviewer called on time. Briefly introduced myself and went on to the problem solving. In the end I was allowed to ask him some questions. The overall process was smooth, except that the interviewer has a strong accent and talked very fast. I had to verify with him 3 times to fully understand the problem. I could hardly pick up what he was saying for the most of the time. He gave me a problem and I only can come up with a brute-force solution.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      a problem similar to 3Sum.
      Answer question

      I interviewed at Amazon

      Interview

      Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.

      I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)

      Interview

      I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
