      Software Development Engineer Interview

      21 Mar 2009
      Anonymous employee
      Seattle, WA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2007

      Interview

      I interviewed with two different developers from Amazon for about 45 minutes each. I think the regular process is more involved, but they came to our college campus and so it was probably limited. The questions were normal interview fare about OO design and concepts and a few simple coding problems. I loved the fact that the interviewers didn't feel like they were looking down on me and even gave me the proper answers for the parts I got wrong. Despite not doing perfectly they must have like me becuase I got an offer within a month (which I accepted). I've loved it here since.

      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Amazon

      Interview

      The whole process stretched over nearly a month, longer than I anticipated. After an initial phone screen, I faced a technical round that included a Min Stack implementation question. We discussed design considerations and thread safety, which threw me for a bit. Fortunately, I remembered a specific mock interview I practiced on PracHub that mirrored this scenario closely, making me feel more at ease. Ultimately, I received an offer, but I chose to decline due to the company culture not feeling like the right fit.
