I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Dublín, Dublín) in Aug 2019
Interview
One of the best hiring I’ve ever seen, but not easy.
I had to do an initial timed coding exercise with 2 tasks. It wasn’t super difficult, but it wasn’t easy either. The second interview was with one of their engineers, and he was looking for a well rounded general knowledge, not just front-end. He was also very helpful, and you could really tell he’s trying to get the best out of you. Unfortunately I was rusty in some of the topics we talked about, so I didn’t pass the second interview, but I’d love to try it again in the future. I think I was not far from passing, if I had prepared a bit more, probably would have passed.
