Amazon | SDE1 New Grad | Seattle | Dec24 [Reject]

Status: New grad, BS/MS
Position: SDE1 at Amazon
Location: Seattle, WA
Date: Dec 24

Online Assessment1:
Debugging existing code all fairly easy except a question about finding how many times a sorted array had been rotated. I didn't have enough time to understand their algorithm and got 0/7 on this one but 7/7 on the other 6. 3 hours later received OA2.

Online Assesment 2:
70 minutes for 2 questions.
Question 1, Given an array what is the maximum value reached by a monotonically increasing sequence. You may modify values but only to reduce them.
Question 2, Given a list of products and their attributes sort them based on some property and return a given page.
Got 100% of test caess for both of these with plenty of time to spare. 5 hours later received OA3.

Online Assessment 3:
Work assessment. Basically an outlook simulator. Answering emails evaluating options. Also asked to rate a bunch of statements based on how much they were like you.

Rejcted a day after OA3. I must have messed up the work simulation. Real bummer as I though the coding went so well.
