They will write their mobile numbers on it

both write "travel north"
both land and keep travelling north till they can travel no more.
meet at north pole :)

Meet up at the airport where we started!!!

Two people travelling through flight and not knowing where to meet must be elite commando .. and the amazon interviewer is the Man Vs Wild fan ..
else they write coordinate ... use some pre-historic pole star angle mechnism.. but best answer is to slap the interviewer..three life's can not depend on an insane mind (2 jumper and 1 interviewee)

instructions :
both will leave there parashute as they touch ground,
then both will walk in opposite direction of the plane with speed X (5 km per hour), when one find parashute, he will walk with double speed (10 km per hour).

Exchange their phone numbers :P :p

What instructions are allowed?
If there is no restriction then they can simply write that meet at the location specified by latitude and longitude.

I guess there is similar question in "how would you move mount fuzi". In the original question there are two robots than the human and both robot execute same program. And the program can be written using few allowed instructions.

I am thinking, maybe just the time of jump is needed. Now the other one can calculate the distance to walk back based on the plane's velocity (average). But he should know a way to find out velocity.

Now after landing assuming all you have is your parachute and that the other person will be alive, and no sandstorms, no unexpected and disastrous events.
A feasible algorithm:
1. after landing leave your parachute and mark your name on it.
2. keep looking around your landing location in circles increasing radius. i.e. cover a circle area of 100 meters and go back to parachute location, then cover a circle area of 200 meters and go back to parachute location. cover a circle of 300 meters and go back to parachute location.
3. If found a different parachute while searching person1 stops at that location and person2 will always come back to his parachute.

They write:
"I should have bought Kindle, it is boring to die in a desert alone. Hail Amazon!"

Or "meet at hell!"

"to the left to the left to the right to the right". man Tootsee Roll sucks

the strategy should be..one walks in the direction of the flight and the other opposite of the flight's direction. and they should write their strategy and direction before jumping... :)

Little change to chennavarri solution.

One person will stay at it's starting position and other will move in circles around it's starting point by increasing radius by certain amount till he finds first person.

A will write on paper and give it to B, saying that before jumping i will shout loudly then you also jump immediately

Or else, they write saying that we will jump combined... because the question is to jump in random location at any place but not they jump at random period of interval.

they will write as the one jumps first will walk towards east and the one jumps second will walk towards west.

they will meet at some point.

A should walk towards the direction the AirPlane went. B should start walking towards the direction plane came from. I guess while in parachute u can see the plane moving.

'A' writes on paper "Move east and wait at the first city police station you will get into"

Now, if 'A' has jumped at any location (whether it is far or near from the first city in the East direction), he need to walk till he gets the city place and whenever 'B' will jump he also needs to travel for the city located in east direction.

damn!!!!
when they jump,they are not blind,they can see what direction the other one went,atleast for a while.When they land they keep moving in that direction .

Q:how did Surveyors draw maps of earth when there was no airplanes/satelites in the days of vasco da gama and Columbus.

A could write "Call me once you hit ground... :) " :P

1. write your name on parachute or mark something on it.
2. watch the direction of wind.
3. leave some signs behind like cap,cloths etc so that the person coming from behind can follow them.

cut your strings before jumping... we will meet in heaven :P

If they land on a plane: Person A remains still, Person B spirals with increasing radius.
If they land on a sphere (earth): Person A takes 1 step east every 1 second, Person B takes 2 step east every 1 second. eventually they will meet since sphere is round.

keep shouting :p

Suppose the desert is a bounded contiguous set in the plane, with a continuous boundary. (A pretty reasonable assumption).

Now the algorithm becomes - have both men walk to the edge of the desert (i.e. the boundary of the set), and then have them follow the edge in opposite directions - one goes clockwise, the other counterclockwise. Eventually they'll meet.
