Amazon Data Engineering Internship: Good Pay but Relatively Inflexible
Amazon Data Engineering Internship: Good Pay but Relatively Inflexible
- Highly competitive pay
- Innovative company
- Lots of room to learn new skills
No input in team and project placement. Internship highly focused on full-time conversion. Highly variable management quality. Data Eng. is very H1B heavy. Data Eng. interns cannot switch teams or receive full-time offers for other positions. Large infra means a lot of legacy tech.
Automatic team and project placement is demotivating for the self-motivated types you want to hire.

It consisted of two consecutive 45-minute rounds, all conducted online. I solved one SQL problem and one Python problem. They also asked me to explain a project I had worked on and posed some basic database knowledge questions.
