I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2017
Interview
I've got employee referral for Software Engineer position, but during the process I've changed it to Software Engineer Intern. After a week one of HR specialists contacted me and asked for my availability. Despite I responded within a few minutes, I haven't got the answer for almost 2 weeks. During this time, one of Amazon employees visited my Linkedin profile few times a day (what for?). Finally, they scheduled my interview with one day's notice - pretty bad practice, Amazon.
Technical interview consisted with two parts: behavioural (one hour) and technical (15 minutes).
Two rounds, one technical and structured Second was a lot more just talking. It was fine overall, asked questions you would expect from an interview. Didn't end up passing, it is what it is
Was part of the women programme spring insight. Started off with an initial cv screen, then moved onto a hackerrank oa, and then we moved onto an in person workshop with an interview at the end
