Hello I have been contacted by Amazon recruiter for an SDM position and was told that there will be coding interview as part of the initial screening. Anyone who has been through Amazon SDM interviews, could you guys tell me what kind of questions to expect. thanks #amazonaws #amazon #sdmamazon
L5 SDM perhaps.
I was told a L6 SDM only had technical design vs coding.
From the friend who referred me to the position , it’s an L6.
Is that AWS position? They are known to have high hiring bar. But still it’s rare but not unheard of to be asked to code.
Yes it’s for AWS
That explains 😃. Do make sure you clarify the format with the recruiter. They do provide you with enough resources in this matter. Don’t worry if your coding skills are rusty. SDMs at Amazon are not expected to write code on daily basis. However some orgs like AWS might require you to demonstrate better competency in view of the core infrastructure level CS problems they need to solve. But again do your LPs well. At SDM interviews you need a very convincing LP tailored story to make progress. Good luck 👍🏼
Thanks xaioxu71.
Is there coding interview in aurora for SDM ?
I haven’t seen them asking coding in the initial round. It was full of leadership principles
