The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2010
Interview
A recruiter from Amazon contacted me after seeing my resume on Monster.com, and scheduled a phone interview after a week. It was technical interview, first asked about some resume projects, then asked algorithms questions. Later that day the recruiter sent email saying that they are going for other candidates. Overall a pleasant experience.
