I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderābād) in May 2017
Interview
First round is about testing problem-solving skills i.e, coding round and the next round is on writing complex queries as the role itself is related to the handling of huge data.
Shortlisted people from above rounds are gone through Technical interviews both coding and sql interviews.
Interviewers were very supportive and giving hints.
In coding interview i was asked on arrays and binary trees.
In sql interview , asked to write few queries and few questions about how i managed my databases, tables in my projects and explain briefly.
Final shortlists were gone through HR round where we are asked mostly about our projects
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
write a code for finding the sum of any two numbers in the given array could be equal to x
Marks of a subject of many students are arranged as a Binary Search Tree.Found that even ranked students cheated in exam so deduct 10 marks from each even ranked student without changing the structure of the tree
Very difficult process it took me a round 1 month to get back what’s the review for the interview so I think overall it’s bad experience and difficult interview process while it has lot of questions I wa able to answer
Standard three-round process consisting of an online assessment followed by a comprehensive interview loop, where candidates were evaluated across technical skills, problem solving ability, and overall fit for the role.
In my 5th semester, Amazon visited our campus to hire interns for multiple roles, and I was shortlisted for the Data Engineer role.
I cleared the online assessment and attended two technical interviews. The first round focused on coding, while the second round focused on SQL. I faced some challenges in the SQL round, and although I was not selected, the experience helped me identify areas for improvement, especially in advanced SQL concepts
