Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA) en jul 2015
Entrevista
Two online coding assessments based on algorithm solving. On-Site: My interview was different then I expected. It seemed it was something new they were trying out. 24 interviewees were brought in and split into teams of two or three. We were given a project that could clearly be split into 3 parts. We were given 5 hours to complete the tasks with two 1 on 1 check-ins about our code and methodology. We submitted our code online once the day was done.
