Interview
A friend sent in my resume. I had a phone interview within the week. It was a one-hour interview with a software engineer on the team I was applying for. The first question was, "Tell me about an interesting book you read recently." Then we discussed my past experience (I described my master's thesis research), and then we moved on to coding questions. Finally we discussed the position and working at Amazon in general.
