Software Engineer Interview Experience

December 1, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I had online assessments:

  • One coding assessment.
  • One LPs simulation.

I was rejected after the OAs. Then I received a recall interview invitation, as "new positions opened up." I gave three interviews and was then rejected.

The whole process was pretty bad, to say the least. No wonder so many people are leaving Amazon.

In one of the interviews, the interviewer wasn't even able to articulate the question properly and was just looking for a certain data structure without giving any kind of specification. I never had such a bad experience with any other company. I'm glad I dodged the bullet.

Questions

Signed NDA. However, the questions are medium-easy LC.
