Am I toast? Amazon Online Assessment

Just completed a online assessment for Amazon. I missed an edge case causing one of my answers to fail 1 of 23 test cases. Am I toast? All said I did make it to the next level. Just got the email.

Lol should be fine

You’ll be placed in a lower tier of problem solvers, and will have to pay back Amazon for wasted compute.

Yes. You‘re supposed to get 100% on OA. Remember they won’t be reading your code to give you partial credit.

Amazon piora Apr 6, 2018

not the case anymore, bar is set to get anyone to a phone screen who got at least something right

You'd probably be fine. I know people who missed a couple of cases and still moved to onsite. BTW, were you not able to run all the test cases before submitting?

All test cases run when testing, but you can only see the input and output for the first two.

Rev HTav22 Apr 6, 2018

That's odd. IIRC, when I did it, I'm pretty sure I was able to go to another tab (in the same test window) and see if all tests for that particular question have passed. Each question has over 10 cases or something like that.

It will probably go to manual review and you will likely get through to on site.

Northrop Grumman WXbK25 OP Apr 6, 2018

Are the application pools topically small enough that they would take the time?

Amazon ama64 Apr 6, 2018

They will regardless of applicant pool size. You wont get penalized for a single small mistake. It’ll take more than that to reject you. But they won’t tell you if it’s manually reviewed or not. You’ll just know pass or fail.

Amazon zzzxxxx Apr 6, 2018

I don’t think that would be fine

Amazon ama64 Apr 6, 2018

We will see right? OP let us know how it goes.

Northrop Grumman WXbK25 OP Apr 6, 2018

Will do.

For which team/position? I just gave one yesterday, 2nd question was messed-up!!

Northrop Grumman WXbK25 OP Apr 6, 2018

Alexa team.

Rev HTav22 Apr 6, 2018

Seattle? There are so many Alexa teams.

I failed a case too and got an onsite invite

Northrop Grumman WXbK25 OP Apr 6, 2018

Good to hear

What sort of questions are there?
