Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó más de 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Londres, Inglaterra) en sept 2011
Entrevista
I applied online submitting my resume. The role was intended to be for fresh graduates from computing-related fields. The hiring manager contacted me in mail asking for the most desirable date and time to have phone interview.
The phone interview lasted around 30 minutes. The interviewer was an engineer from Amazon Research Lab at Edinburgh asking me first the questions about my background, studies at the university I was then doing Master's course, and finally, questions regarding my skills in Java. The Java part was about collections, syntax and exceptions. It was heavily Java collections questions with problem, use case scenario and a question on how I would solve it, which data structure would chose and what the overall computing complexity would be as a result.
I have not been successful in getting next round of the interview. The hiring manger contacted me in 3 days after phone interview letting me know that they made decision not to continue with my application.

Why would you use ArrayList? Is there a way to implement the same logic using just an ordinary array of int elements? What is the pros and cons in your decision?
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.
