I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2009
Interview
The interviewer was very professional, My first phone interview went well. The interview was quite patient and encouraged my thought process and I could answer the questions. I was asked questions based on data structures. Second interview was similar, the interviewer asked me many non-technical questions like why Amazon, projects I have done and technical stuff like OOP concepts, two design problems. Interviewers are very helpful, they want to know more about how you try to tackle the problem, and do you catch the hints they give you.
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.
