I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2011
Interview
Interview process consisted of two phone interviews. Both were manageable and consisted of basic C and C++ concepts and few simple programming problems. After this was invited on-site to their campus in Seattle. Had 5 rounds of on-site interviews, 2 on either side of a lunch interview which I believe was with a hiring manager. The interviews consisted of a combination of coding and design type questions. A couple of interviews went well and a couple not so well, so net result was a reject. The HR called up the morning after the interview to give me the news, just as I was leaving the hotel for the airport!!
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.
