I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2011
Interview
There were two phone interviews on consecutive days. Each was about an hour, and they asked a series of technical questions. The questions weren't too hard, and you were given as much time as you needed to complete it. Once done, they asked you to read and explain your code and they talked it over with you, making suggestions and questioning your process. If there was a better answer, they helped you find it to see if you could understand their method too.

Question 1
Use object oriented programming to design a deck of cards.
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.

Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
First round with hr screening - 2 leetcode questions then hr manager screening then the loop which consists of 4 interviews each an hour long. The 4 interview questions they asked where three medium leetcode questions. And one system design interview question about how to shadow deploy a test software to millions of users.
