Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (San Jose, CA) en ene 2016
Entrevista
They sent me a coding challenge. The first half was easy. It was about finding bugs in small programs. The second half required you to do multiple questions about logics and puzzles. I screwed that up. 40 questions in 40 minutes. The last one was a coding question. Easy in nature. But I had to find an optimized algorithm for it and it took quite a long time. They gave me 30 mins.
The recruiter was kind, he extended the coding challenge for me twice, though 2 times I had problem logging in the system to do the coding challenge. So I had to contacted the system's support team and they resolved it very quickly within a day.

Pregunta 1
Count distinct pair of integers that sum up to a target number.
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.

Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
First round with hr screening - 2 leetcode questions then hr manager screening then the loop which consists of 4 interviews each an hour long. The 4 interview questions they asked where three medium leetcode questions. And one system design interview question about how to shadow deploy a test software to millions of users.
