Amazon Robotics Software Engineer interview experience

United StatesPosted Oct 2016 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I got pulled into the process through campus recruiting: I met them at a career fair, did a head-on campus behavioral interview, and then followed it with one technical phone interview.

The on-campus part went really well.

What surprised me was that the technical phone call wasn’t what they said it would be. They intended to ask one coding and one design question, but they ended up repeating the same behavioral themes from the HR conversation—general concept questions first—then rushed into a very easy coding question at the end. I panicked in that last stretch and didn’t do well, which felt out of proportion compared to the earlier round.

I ultimately didn’t get an offer, and the mismatch between the expected format and what actually happened made the last interview feel
