      Software Engineer Intern Interview

      11 Apr 2011
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tempe, AZ
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Tempe, AZ) in Mar 2011

      Interview

      It consisted of 2 45 minutes back to back interviews. Both are skill questions. The first interview consisted of a group of jobs in which some of them had dependencies, meaning that some had to be completed first before one could start. Think of this as a graph with pointing arrows. Create an algorithm that would spit out the most efficient/best job sequence. The result would be something along these lines: first job3, job4; second job1; third job5, job6, etc. What data structure would you use and how would you represent it? Explain it with pseudocode, then write it on code. The second interview consisted of an expression tree. What structure would you use to represent this? Write code that would compute the result. Can you write it without using recursion? What's memory overhead?

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      First Interview. What data structure to use, and how to solve the problem?
      1 Answer

      Question 2

      Second Interview. Write code to compute result of expression binary tree? What's the time complexity?
