I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2012
Interview
the questions are pretty much answerable..mostly...you must know DS n algo very well..n also OS is important..files n deadlock...network based questions not presented.
purely technical..not much HR... interviewere very friendly ...tho their process of taking down notes is pretty nerve wracking. the four rounds arent equally paced...last 2 are more difficult..yet doable...but the interviewers often preselect before coomencing the 4th round...
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)
Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role
It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
