Process

The interview process included:

  • 1st Phone Screen
  • 2nd 1:1 Coding Challenge and System Design questions
  • 3rd Final round of 5 interviews with a total of 8 people (5 interviewers and 3 people shadowing).

There were a bunch of situational questions checking if you're a good fit with the Amazon Leadership Principles. However, some of my questions were repeated from two interviewers, which threw me off since it's discouraged to repeat examples you've already used.

Questions

  1. Using data structures and any programming language, parse through a list of names and numbers, ensuring the list has no duplicates, and then sort it by quantity.

  2. Write the end game logic for a Tic-Tac-Toe game, verifying if a player has won or if the game is a draw.

  3. Write a library function that retrieves failed deployment IDs from an API and the deployment status for each ID from another API. This function should list all failed and in-progress deployments by calling the library function only once.
