I applied through a job portal and got the call from Amazon HR for SDE2 position and 3 technical rounds of interview was scheduled on weekend. I cleared 3 rounds and I was told that there would be telephonic interview on midweek. Later before the interview HR called me up to inform that the feedback from 3 rounds of interview was that I am good for SDE1 position and not SDE2. HR also told me that if I am fine with just SDE1 position then I can proceed with the interview. And the reason for considering me for SDE1 and not SDE2 was that I was not good at software design, but in those 3 rounds of interview that I had given, I was just asked about algorithms and nothing about design. I felt HR was trying to push me for SDE1 position so that they can get a 5+ years of experienced software developer for less compensation. Nevertheless I rejected to give any further rounds of interview. Overall interview process was good and interviewer were friendly and helpful. But the above HR response was shocking and I feel probably overall HR/Management is not that great. Anyways below are the interview questions for anybody who are interested: 1. Reverse the bit of a given integer. 2. Give a efficient data-structure/algorithm for auto-complete/auto-correct of a word typed in a search bar. 3. Find kth largest element in 2 sorted arrays. 4. Find longest increasing subsequence in an array. 5. Find the largest rectangle in histogram. these are pretty simple questions, you can find the answers in google!.
