  • MUST WATCH: I managed to persuade Amazon interviewer Ardy to answer some of the most common questions about Amazon interview process! If you're software developer looking to get a job in Amazon - you will have a chance to peek into the Amazon's offices and see the interviewing space and learn how technical interview looks like.
    As always: this is not an official Amazon statement, just our personal view.

      ideally - yes, if you can't give more than one example - it seems like you don't have experience.

      Then that is what you need to do if you're set on this company. Amazon receives thousands of applications each month, and to maintain the highest standards of the process - sometimes it takes lot of time.

    Hi we know the main and important part of the interview is the coding test that will determine your future on Amazon.
    Can you deep dive into that please?
    What does a programmer has to prepare on the type of data structures?
    Type of algorithms?
    The type of system designe?
    So one can look these up and practice before the interview.

    • @fahadahaf
      @fahadahaf Před 2 lety +1

      Focus on Easy and Medium difficulty problems on LeetCode and you should be good to go. And no, coding test is not the most important part of the Amazon interview process; the Leadership Principles and Behavioural questions are just as (if not more) important as the coding challenges.

    I was heavily stressing about the leadership principle question. Telling myself stuff like,
    "I'm not a good story teller" "How would I ever recall a story about something so specific so quickly?"
    So, the part where he said it's incredibly difficult to think of something on the spot even for him - took so much weight off my shoulders. Thanks for the content!

    • @emergcon
      @emergcon Před 2 lety

      The leadership principles and questions are public for a reason. So you can prep your self. This is important for the HR side of your interview process. They asses if you are understanding the principles of working at amazon. The other part will be with some one from the field you are applying to. In my case it was the regional manager of my division. They will test your knowledge in this division, ask you how you would handle problems etc. If you convince them of your abilties and that you are a good addition to their team it will count a lot more than "just passing" the leadership principles and questions. Dont get me wrong. They are important. They are the basis for working for Amazon. But in my view those prinicples are also the basis for anyone who wants to lead others.
