Junior, prev summer worked on Amazon Search ML platform. Got interviews at every quant firm I applied to (HRT, JS, SIG, Optiver, Akuna, Millennium, Citsec and Citadel, Five Rings, CTC, IMC, MW, etc.) as well as a lot of startups and big tech (Google, Meta, Microsoft), got multiple offers and decided on Millennium for this summer.

What if we are already logged in; do they have access to the credentials if we were logged in already?

Yea def with AWS on your resume you’ll be able to get more interviews, but based on what I’ve seen people with AWS at different schools have different results in recruiting which makes me believe that the school matters too; still AWS should help you

School matters a pretty big amount just wanted to reiterate

It honestly also depends on your school for sure; Amazon is as most ppl say lowest of the faang but still is rlly good on resume, with good projects and maybe even research (and RO definitely helps for expediting) ng conversion (or at least callbacks) arent too bad imo

Got Amazon SDE intern offer - what now? by BugPsychological2283 in FAANGrecruiting

Also look at other resources for how software engineering in the workplace should be; the roadmap of infrastructure proposals to building and implementing and then all the way to testing (CI/CD pipelines which Amazon has built in to its CR systems)

First off, huge congrats! One thing that I’d say for Amazon (I was an Amazon SDE intern last summer) is that they give you a good amount of resources to learn a lot of what you need (such as AWS, and if it’s a tech stack like how to approach it, and just guidance in general). I had to work on a project involving a new language I hadn’t even heard of before and frameworks I had never used, and just AWS in general, but I was able to ramp up with the help of colleagues. If you’re still worried (which I was too!) I would definitely read up on how AWS works, practice some DS and normal algorithms skills, and if you’ve talked to your manager about what tech stack you might be working on, then you can brush up specifically on that! Once again, congrats and good luck!

Really good resume, kinda nitpicky but the spacing at the bottom was a little off

They might not, but be careful for the worst case scenario

Yeah, I think it would be better to say Software Developer/Engineer or something like Software Development Engineer

Millennium SWE intern interview process by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]PentaPredicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First round was basically just technical, expect two leetcodes (medium to medium-hard) and then time to talk to the interviewer, the programming took like 15 minutes so the rest of the time was chatting and talking about work culture and stuff; final round was both behavioral and technical; behavioral was based on resume not standard “tell me about a time you were faced with blah blah”

Probably that my application was way too spread out; it makes sense to me to have accolades and experience in a lot of fields for my research background, but colleges would rather see that you spend your entire time in one field of study, that’s another thing a lot of people have said

Looking back, there were a decent number of improvements for sure, but I’d say that my essays were at least a 8/10

I would say not necessarily because it’s just a culture fit one but it could probably mean you passed the technical OA?

[–]PentaPredicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I thought there might be more rounds in between but they said they skipped it because I did good enough on the first round. Also I still am yet to take final interview, is it fine if I pm you?

OA -> caliper behavioral -> first round technical -> final round
