      Software Development Engineer I Interview

      19 Oct 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      College Station, TX
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (College Station, TX) in Sept 2015

      Interview

      The interview process was very impersonal. The first email I received entailed a quick survey asking me a little about programming experience, how I fit into programming teams, and more. Then I was invited to take an online technical assessment. This was a two hour session which included a series of logic questions and a programming question. Then, I was invited to take yet another technical assessment which included a "work simulation" and two more programming questions. I was told I was not selected one day following the second technical assessment

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Programming Question 1: Write a function to determine the longest palindromic substring of a given string.
