Need to complete AWS solution architect assessment in a week. Anyone did this assessment? Is this coding assessment or aptitude or AWS architecture question?

      Thanks, I did my online assessment last week and called for next phone interview now. Assessment is based on work samples , LP question and General Technology questions based on your survey and topics selection. Hope that helps.

    What do you mean by assessment?

    Did you have the first phone interview yet? Usually ( 2 years ago), first phone interview is broad technical interview - like from apps/databases to networking ( udp/tcp) ... check Glassdoor for some examples..

    Then a manager interview by phone... then the usual loop... which also has a presentation portion.

      They told if I clear this online assessment, I will be asked for in person(virtual) interview directly with panel. HR said no need for initial phone interview. Looks like they changed interview formats after this COVID 🙃

      Ok then an online assessment? Look for online courses and assessment sites that have SA prep.
      I don’t have any ..

      Also, you reach out and get the recruiter on the phone for some other clarification and ask if he/she has pointers to examples or prep for the online assessment.

      You will be surprised what the recruiters might tell to help. They want you to be successful as well.

    Seems like they changed the process. There’s now online assessments, most likely due to the influx of candidates given the current climate.
