Do you mean AWS recruiters are asking you to take timed coding tests? Or in general? This is a thing for people with experience? What value or skills do recruiters actually bring? It's a wonder anyone gets hired at all with these jokers as gate keepers. Good on you for getting a better gig. Congrats.
Yes it’s a standard part of the interview cycle at Amazon. Usually two questions in an hour or something, and you code solutions which the test platform grades. They’re on par with leetcode easy IME, but I just find it to be a pain so I won’t do it again.
I’m sure it’s helpful to weed out applicants who actually cannot code, but what’s the point in doing it twice?
