Overview
Shared work experiences from Amazonians Workshops and great tips/information about interviews Information about the internship program in Amazon
Skills
I used Python programming language to solve some problems, with which previously I was not familiar with
Business Insight
Great! I learned a lot about working in Amazon
Culture
I really appreciated the phrase of Amazonians: "Every Day is Day One". This means to me that the people who work there are always willing to learn and grow fast. They are innovative and willing to satisfy the costumers. Also, I liked that there is comprehension between the employees and they help and support each other.
Your Impressions
I was not waiting to participate in such an organised event. I think it is the best I have ever participated in. Especially, the workshops and the small groups were really important. They gave us the chance to meet each other, communicate and collaborate for solving problems. On the other hand, the main meetings gave us lots of information and tips about applications, interviews and work experiences.
Yes
I would recommend them to brush up their knowledge in Algorithms and Data Structures. Also, ask questions and for clarifications in interviews. I think that they should be confident to apply in Amazon, because it is worth. The most important is that they should be willing to work and learn!
