面試公司: Amazon
面試職位: Software Development Engineer I
求職方法: Amazon Career(Amazon自己的徵才網站)
背景: University of Wisconsin-Madison, Bachelor in Computer Science
(Graduated in Dec, 2011)
面試過程:
當時在Amazon Career上面丟了十幾個position都直接被拒絕了, 結果我的
application似乎被轉到University Recruiting那邊,一月底的時候收到第一個
phone interview invitation.
Amazon總共給了我三個phone interview(一般是兩個,我第二個發揮不太好
所以給了我三個). 然後就到西雅圖總部on-site inteview.一共有四個one-on-one
interview,加上午餐跟manager吃飯.我從10點半面試到下午兩點半.
一個禮拜後收到recruiter寄來email說我被錄取了.再過一個禮拜recruiter
才打電話給我跟我談offer的細節.又過了一個禮拜才收到正式的offer letter.
面試到拿到正式的offer總共花了三個多月.
心得:
Amazon問的問題並沒有特別難,主要就是data structure. Problem solving都是
一些常見的問題. Hash Table很重要,幾乎每個interviewer都會問到hash table的問
題.主要就是問hash table是甚麼,會不會做簡單的hash,遇到collison怎麼辦之類的.
binary tree相關的problem solving也會問一些.其他就是array跟list的差別這種的
基礎問題.
一定要會算時間複雜度,回答不出來時間複雜度基本上就掰了.
要有scalibility的概念,他們會問遇到龐大的資料的時候怎麼辦之類的問題.
我遇到的interviewer都很親切,遇到瓶頸的時候都會給提示.
備註:
前兩個phone interview他們都要我寫code在紙上然後念出來,這個要好好練習.
Programming Interviews Exposed跟Cracking the coding兩本書很重要,幫助很大.
Glassdoor也很好用.練習problem solving的時候不要覺得問題簡單就不把code寫下
來.有些資料結構很久沒用真的會忘記怎麼用.
無聊沒事的時候可以上UVa online judge解解題,可以訓練自己解題的能力跟讓
coding的感覺不要生疏.
每個面試只有45分鐘,但是不要因為有時間壓力就慌張,interviewer自己也知道
45分鐘不夠用.保持自己的節奏不要犯愚蠢的錯誤比較重要(當然也不能太慢啦)
拿到offer letter的時候還有一段插曲,recruiter給我的start date是5/21.但是
我的90 days unemployment period在5/15就要到期了,所以他們改成5/14了.如果有
板友遇到類似的狀況不要害羞直接跟他們要求就好了.
這是小弟人生的第一份正職工作,五月十四號開始上班,如果板上有在Amazon工作
的前輩歡迎前來認養小弟XD
祝大家求職順利!
