Interviewed May 2012 in Palo Alto, CA (took a day)
Most interviewers there are very nice, friendly, easy to talk with. There are problem solving, system design and discussions.
Everything was great until the last meeting with HM. What a horrible experience, the worst I've ever met in my life. He came in with attitude, twisted face all the time. I was trying to be friendly and but hearing offensive words. I can't believe A9/AMZ make such an unprofessional person a manager. Thanks god I don't need to work with him. I feed bad he ruins the image of AMZ.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Palo Alto, CA (took 3 weeks)
The interview consisted of a couple of basic questions- nothing that could not be looked up online in Wikipedia. Expect basic Java, SQL, scripting.
The algorithm problem was extremely simple. Nevertheless, if you present a more efficient solution than your interviewer and insist on it, you will not get the job. At one point, the interviewer confused O(1) memory with O(N). Talking to her was a complete waste of time.

A rapid fire round, questions - answers. Didn't like it.
I prefer the interview to be problem solving, rather than some questions, for which answers can be looked up while interviewing.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 1 week)
Applied it on-line and got a phone call from the hiring manager. First he asked several general behavior questions. However, later I heard keyboard clicking while I was talking. :( He even asked several personal questions, such as why staying at school for long time, which research algorithm I own. He implied that his employee are mostly have advanced degree... In a word, a very downside interview experience.
