Status: 4 YOE, BS CS
Position: SDE2 at Amazon
Location: Seattle
Date: January, 2021

Technical OA:
Two questions from Amazon list (Medium, Medium)

Technical phone screen (1 hour):

  • Behavioral questions (10 min)
  • One question from Amazon list (Medium)

Result: No respose after Technical phone screen.

I was contacted via LinkedIn, they only asked me for my Resume but I never received a call to formalize the process. After a few days, I received an email with the invitation to an online A. Due to work, I decided to answer it next day.
The problems were medium, they are on the Amazon list. Three test cases for each problem failed, but I still decided to submit the answers.
The following Monday, I received another email from another recruiter, indicating that they wanted to continue with the process and scheduled the interview by phone. I request the call for a week later, I have been studying so I felt confident for any exam.

As I didn't know for which position I being interviewed, I decide to contact the new recruiter, via email, with the intention of knowing if this process was for SD1 or SD2. The next day I received an email with the confirmation that the position was SD2.

The day of the interview, everything went very well, we started with the behavioral questions and after approximately 10 minutes we started with the technical problem. The problem is also on the list of Amazon problems, medium level. I had two errors, but thanks to the recommendations of the interviewer I was able to correct both errors and continue with the code test. He agreed with the solution, so before ending the call I asked him to please explain to me what an SD2 does in amazon.

During that week I didn't receive news of my interview, so I decided to contact both recruiters via email, asking if I could have any news of the results or if they required something else from my side; but I didn't receive a response from that email.

Anyone have any idea why they take so long to respond?
Why is it that I have not received any news of my results?
If I receive an email I will share the results here, :)
