Process

Initially, I received an online assessment (4 hours duration) for the Fungible SDEI FT position in June 2024. I interviewed in August 2024.

There were three virtual onsite interviews:

  • Two technical coding interviews
  • One behavioral interview (Amazon LPs)

All three interviews were conducted on the same day.

Questions

The first coding interview was unnecessarily and unexpectedly hard.

It was some variation of a LeetCode Hard question, specifically on the topic of Dynamic Programming, which is already more difficult than other topics.

The second coding interview was better, with an Object-Oriented design problem.

Was this helpful?
