      Software Development Engineer I Interview

      4 Jan 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Sept 2013

      Interview

      The recruiter communicated very little, and also gave me little time to prepare. Maybe he was rushing to meet a quota. I went into the phone interview not knowing much about the position, and inadequately prepared. The recruiter's emails were short and sparse, and lacked several details which I later found my friends had received from other Amazon recruiters. The questions were not terribly difficult, but I wasn't well prepared. The interviewer was patient and very polite. He gave me a few hints along the way, but I could tell the interview was over as we spoke. Never got pass the phone interview. Lesson learned that I should have demanded more information and request for more prep-time that suited my pace. Felt like I was hit by a train, with everything happening in a flash.

      Empresa extremamente clara sobre o que é pedido na entrevista e isso me mostra a seriedade. Minha experiencia foi positiva e tente se atentar a resolver o problema e não somente decorar padrões do leetcode.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Calgary, AB) in Jun 2026

      Interview

      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.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      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
