Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA) en nov 2020
Entrevista
Started with a 3-round virtual assesment.
1. First was debugging. (For this just try flipping around equals signs and <,> and changing indeces. It's nothing to complicated).
2. Next was a 2 question long leetcode type assesment. I think I had a variation of 2 sum and something with Trees. It wasn't too difficult.
3. Like a workplace assesment. Thought it was weird.
After these rounds I got notified that I qualified for final round. Final round was ~10 minutes of behavioral then right into technical question. They gave me an incredibly hard math question that I had no idea how to solve. The engineer was nice and said I wasn't expected to solve it, but I had no clue what to do. Failed the interview, no offer.
Applied online and received an Online Assessment. It consisted of two LeetCode-style coding problems with a time limit . The process was straightforward and fully automated with no human interaction at this stage.

Pregunta 1
Solve a coding problem involving array manipulation under a timed online assessment
There were 2 rounds- one DSA round and one HR round.
In the first round they asked me a DP + trees question which was of medium to hard difficulty.
In the second round the interviewer asked me about my resume, my projects, some computer fundamental questions.

This was an On Campus opportunity. First was the Online Assessment, which consisted of 2 questions, solved both. Then they scheduled two rounds of mandatory interviews, both focusing on DSA, Problem Solving, Behavioral Questions and GenAI Fluency,
Preguntas de entrevista [6]
Pregunta 1
The first question was standard Longest Common Subsequence, interviewers expected me to first explain the brute force solution and then move on to the optimal approach.
"Tell me a time when you worked on a problem which was difficult for you".
"How do you use GenAI in your day to day work?"
"Tell me about a project where you've used GenAI"
Given an array, you can do a merge operation where you merge (or sum) two adjacent equal numbers, remove both the numbers, and replace with the new merged number. For example, [3 1 1] becomes [3 2]. Now you can operate infinite number of times, and you need to return the smallest final array after doing all the possible operations optimally, e.g. for [1 1 1 1] the answer will be [4] and not [1 2 1].
