Me postulé a través de una facultad o universidad. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Ciudad de México) en jun 2014
Entrevista
Got recruited by Amazon at my university and was scheduled for an online screening, I was given a list of topics regarding computer science that will be covered on the interview, sorting algorithms, order of complexity, object oriented stuff, and web services, during the interview I had to answer some questions and video record my answers which is weird the first time, it got me a little nervous because I hadn't done it before, so if you have this type of interview, get in a close room, quiet and with good lighting.

Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.

The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together

Recruiter reached out and set up an onsite loop after the initial steps. Four back to back rounds in one day. Two coding heavy rounds run by senior engineers, one round with the hiring manager, and one behavioral round with a bar raiser. Mix of leadership principles and data structures throughout. Heard back within a week.

Pregunta 1
Standard BFS grid problem. Given a grid, find the time for all cells to reach a target state where the spread happens one layer at a time.
How did you answer: Clarified the constraints, walked through the approach, then coded a clean BFS from all starting points at once. Tracked the number of layers until everything was covered.
