So Trump is right, again, on illegal aliens being rapists?
Had the first half of the Amazon onsite today. I still have 2 more interviews to go. The bar raiser used words like good, congratulations, hopefully we see you at Amazon in the future. My LP stories in the bar raiser round was decent. My LP stories in the first interview was great and coding and communication was great too. The interview said "good and that was a great question" at the end. My second interview I messed up the system design for sure. Assuming I don't badly mess up the next two interviews, does this mean I pass? #Amazon
What is a bar raiser?
basically, the dude that checks if you can be hired. I heard it's fail if the bar raiser says no and might be a yes if bar raiser says yes.
How do you know which is the bar raiser?
As a counter point... I'm a bar raiser and I always try to make the candidates feel good about their responses.... Even when their code is hopeless. I don't want to get confidence down for their next interviewer. So don't read too much into those comments. That being said, if the interviews were enjoyable to you, it probably went well!
2 out of the 3 interviews went well. The 2nd interview, I just didn't have enough time to fully complete the system design. I only had like 30 minutes to come up with something and I didn't see that problem before. Also the prompt was pretty big and it took ~15 min to clarify all the requirements.
I’m trying to get hired by Amazon. I’ve been once interviewed by the firm so far. Is it possible to transition from product management to account and partnership management (I have experience in partnerhsip management) and — do you have a startup vertical or similar where I can work with startups?
Pass + down level would be my guess
From what I've heard, they don't down level anymore.
Then a fail I’d guess. I imagine they have enough candidates in the pipeline that don’t hard fail a round.
How was the OOP round? I’m going to give onsite in a few weeks. Any advice is much appreciated!
You could get downleveled. I bombed my SD round in 2022 and was downleveled to L4. Times may have changed though
I hear they don't down level anymore. They are not hiring for L4.
How were the coding questions? Leetcode medium?
