I recently gave the Amazon OA for SDE-II role. It had:
- 1 coding question
- 1 issue-resolution/debugging task in a codebase using the AI assistant
I was able to solve both completely.
However, I have one doubt regarding the second section.
I fixed all the issues mentioned in the acceptance criteria, and all related test cases were passing successfully. While exploring further, I noticed another possible issue and started trying to fix it. During that, I added a log line but may not have completed or removed it before submission.
After submitting, I realized that if that incomplete line was still present, it could potentially cause a compile/runtime issue.
So now I’m wondering:
- Does Amazon evaluate only against the required acceptance criteria/tests?
- Or can such accidental incomplete changes negatively impact the evaluation even if the main requirements were solved correctly?
I also completed the design/behavioral section afterward.
Has anyone experienced something similar or knows how this section is evaluated?
