Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Edimburgo, Escocia) en abr 2025
Entrevista
Non-technical, aptitude based and kind of fun! Lots of logic test, games-based aptitude testing, and a focus on the Amazon Leadership Principles in the interview and presentation components. The first couple of rounds were delivered online, asynchronously. The final round was online in real time, with a panel of interviewers, made up of current SDEs and managers in the team. No HR-only were on the panel. It included a group project, a one-to-one interview, and a 15 minute presentation.

Expect lots of questions about examples in your working or study life where you've enacted one of the Amazon leadership priniciples
Standard LC mediums, nothing too crazy. Interviewer was pretty chill and was helpful in pointing me in the right direction when I needed as well. Only thing I would probably change was to study more on graph problems before hand.

Pregunta 1
You are given an 0-indexed integer array weights, where weights[i] represents the weight of the i-th marble, and an integer k.
Your task is to divide the marbles into k bags such that:
No bag is empty.
Each bag must contain marbles from a contiguous range of indices. That is, if a bag includes marbles at indices i and j, then all marbles with indices between i and j (inclusive) must also be included in that same bag.
The cost of a bag that includes marbles from index i to j (inclusive) is defined as weights[i] + weights[j].
The total score of a distribution is the sum of the costs of all k bags.
Return the difference between the maximum and minimum possible scores among all valid distributions.
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.

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.
