Amazon Applied Scientist interview prep
I am invited for a virtual on-site loop for applied scientist role with one of the Alexa AI teams (ASR side).
Any Amazon AS here? Would like to know what you guys look for in the candidate generally. I see that there’s a one hour presentation as part of the loop. Are the rest of the rounds based on this? If not, how important is this?
My experience is not in ASR so I’m not sure how to keep the audience focused or what level of detail I need to go in the presentation. I read that it is advised not to talk about multiple projects so if I talk about some research domain other than teams focus (ASR) is that ok?
Also, it’d be great if anyone who interviewed for similar roles share their interview experience.
TIA

PS - in before “dont join Amazon”: it’s ok, my current role is much worse and I’ll take the first offer I get.
