I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2022
Interview
Review for phone screen only for enterprise position. The interviewer was 5 minutes late. No introduction for either parties, went straight to technical questions. No LP questions at all. The interviewer spoke very fast with a strong accent. I had to ask to repeat questions a few times. My overall impression was that majority questions were randomly taken out of a routing theory book and test you how well you study it. If you are studying for CCNP or CCIE written test, you'll probably pass.

Question 1
So, you have a laptop which will be connected in a branch office. So, you are working remotely. Let's say you go to a branch office, right? Plug in your laptop physically into your switch. Cable it up. I'm keeping it simple, taking wireless off. So, after you connected to the network, say your laptop had to download some patches from your central server, which is present in your enterprise, right? Call it, like, update.mycompany.com. It's going to connect and download some patches. This is the use case. This is the scenario that you are using here. So, basically, let's dive deep and go into some questions on networking. Given this, can you run me through the events that happen in the network from the time your laptop is connected and till the updates are downloaded?
