I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2011
Interview
Not much to say. Applied through college career board, then got a 1:1 interview scheduled on campus. If I had cleared this interview, there were 4-5 more scheduled during following days. But I didn't make it.
The interviewer did not look interested at all. Gave me a weird problem to solve, didn't provide much help and worked on his laptop while I was solving it. The problem related to distinguishing company employees from outside visitors when someone hits a website. Eventually it boiled down to IPs, strings, hash tables, etc.

Question 1
Refer the interview process for the weird question.
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.
