The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2010
Interview
This wasn't an interview, rather a visit arranged by my school. All the people I met there were software engineers, very intelligent and nice people. They had almost zero attitude. They know what they are doing, and like what they are doing. Otherwise it is almost impossible to tackle the daily problems they solve. It is challenging, but thinking the scope of the impact they have around the world, makes very much sense. I would love to work there after I graduate, because I like the challenge.
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.
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.
