Amazon Reports LeetCode Cheating

amazon execs r so mad LOLLL maybe stop asking dumb interview questions and people wouldn't build shit like this interviewcoder.co Behavioral Conduct Reporting Form Submitted on Friday, February 2, 2025 at 3:26:18 am EST Nature Alleged Student Behavioral Violation Urgency Yes Incident Date and Time 2025-01-30 Incident Location Electronic (Email, Text, Online) Reported by Name: Phone: Address: [UNAUTHENTICATED] Involved Parties Chungin Lee (cil2118) Respondent chungin.lee@columbia.edu Details of Concern Please provide a detailed description of the incident/concern using specific, concise, objective language (who, what, where, when, why, and how): Dear Columbia Center for Student Success and Intervention, I wanted to start by commending your university for its outstanding talent pool and dedicated graduates. Columbia Engineering has provided Amazon with a constant stream of incredible students and candidates, who have allowed Amazon to grow into what it is today. Because of this, it deeply saddens me to have uncovered that a bright candidate who interviewed with my team had blatantly and irreverently cheated through our interview process. Chungin, or Roy as his pronouns, recently interviewed for our Amazon SDE intern role in which he proved to be a spectacular candidate, as we have come to expect from Columbia Engineering students, and an offer was extended to Roy recently. Soon after, I received a link to a YouTube video created by Roy in which he showed himself using an invisible cheating tool to aid him during an interview. I have linked this video under this message. While this disturbing enough, further research showed that Roy is selling this tool to other students and engineers, spreading the tool to many users. We are hopeful that Roy can stop calling the tool long-existing methods and process the power, not at the expense of your peers. For now, we will be rescinding the offer extended to Roy, yet this message goes beyond just Roy. Amazon has a long tradition of working with Columbia Engineering, including the SURE program, and it deeply concerns us to see situations like this occur in such an institution. LOL ↑

Скриншот поста Roy с фотографией формы жалобы в Columbia на студента Chungin Lee за использование невидимого инструмента для списывания во время собеседования в Amazon. Шутка в том, что чрезмерно драматичную официальную жалобу на читерство превращают в ответ на нелепые вопросы технических интервью, из-за которых люди и создают такие инструменты; красная надпись «LOL» подчёркивает абсурд ситуации. EN: A screenshot of Roy’s post showing a Columbia complaint form accusing student Chungin Lee of using an invisible cheating tool during an Amazon interview. The joke is that an absurdly dramatic official complaint about interview cheating is presented as a response to ridiculous technical interview questions that drive people to create such tools; the red “LOL” emphasizes the absurdity.
