J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon en juill. 2017
Entretien
1st stage phone screening: +1h of technically oriented interview with shared coding/text space on colabedit
2nd stage onsite: a whole day of in depth interviews with multiple employees, mainly engineers
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Not gonna break the NDA, but few points that I think may help:
- once you're thru to the onsite, revise and refresh your knowledge. across the board, make sure you can comfortable refer to your career and experience.
- get a good night sleep, especially if they fly you in! No redbulls and obsessing overnight, it's too late at this stage...
- know what you're talking about! this is very important and helps if you're actually good at what you do.
- pay attention thru the interviewing process, listen and think!
- relax, well try to relax. Amazon has very high standards and the interview process is difficult!
- do not overdose on caffeine! Recommended amount of caffeine is usually 400 mg per day for healthy adults. That's like 2-3 coffees MAX!
Lastly, it can be done! People who interview you sat in "your" chair once... you got this!

Question 1
Implement a PLC prgram to control a fridge compressor and interior light using three IEC 61131-3 implementation languages (CFC, LD, ST)
interview process in two stages
first stage consists of leetcode easy question, you have to explain all the steps
second stage has 5 interviews, my interview got cancelled after first stage
Recruiter call then online assessment then phone interview then loop. Recruiter was willing to call me in between each step for help. Very heavy on the behavioral aspect. Overall they probably asked me for almost 20 unique experiences
