A very flexible place to work. I plan my own work and my own time to fit around my work and personal commitments. The opportunity to learn is massive!
Internally, behind the technology proposition, the organization needs to mature. Not everyone meets the bar for Amazon expectations, and their internal policies, particularly HR, are antiquated and not set up for a modern and future business.
Identify the deadwood who do not meet the Amazon bar and deal with them. Modernize your internal HR processes, including leave and time off, which are weak. Create a more flexible approach to promoting people and sharpen up the organization's consulting skills and disciplines toward customers and partners. Finally, although everyone is a leader, provide stronger leadership in middle management and downward. Promoting people to managers does not make them managers.
The interview process was quite long. It was virtual due to COVID: * Phone Interview (covered fundamental technical and behavioral questions) * Architecture Whiteboarding with SAs, followed by a written technical document about a previous worklo
The first interview was a technical one that lasted 30 minutes. The interviewer was friendly and helpful, focusing on the technical questions. The interview was not too formal, which helped with the nerves.
OA, 3 questions. Leetcode, API design, SQL. Followed by 1 round with HM, easy-medium question. Small behavioral: “tell me about a project you did” + follow ups. This honestly is inline with other SDE intern interviews - nothing spectacular.
