I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Dublin, Dublin) in Nov 2010
Interview
Interviewed by phone(1 hr) and then 1hr coding test.
Phone interview went through topics such as OO techniques, conceptual design of a oo system(e.g filesystem), data structures (linkedlist, hashtables), write a factorial function, tcp/ip questions, scripting questions. In general quite an in depth interview. For the coding test i was asked to implement a single linked list iteratively and recursively - write unit tests aswell. Again quite a difficult question.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru)
Interview
The interview process consisted of an online assessment followed by two technical interview rounds and one behavioral round. The technical rounds focused on Data Structures, Algorithms, Java, and problem-solving skills. The behavioral round covered Amazon Leadership Principles and past project experiences. The interviewers were professional and the process was well structured.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Tel Aviv-Yafo)
Interview
Amazon's home assignment test involves receiving a coding or case study assignment, completing it independently within a specified deadline (usually a few days), and submitting it for team review. I got an answer after 2 days
Had a screening from recruiter, then a follow up phone interview.
Had been asked to take an assessment and I flunked it.
I had hard time managing the time in 45 min window.
