I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2011
Interview
Contacted by recruiter. Set up a phone interview for the following week. The interviewer failed to call. Sent an email to the recruiter. Rescheduled the phone interview. Talked about my exp, asked some basic data structures question and then asked to design a class. I knew I didnt do well. Didnt get an offer. I didnt know about glassdoor then. Was not well prepared.Planning to try again.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sídney)
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.
