I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2015
Interview
This was an in-campus group project interview for recent graduates. It was a one whole day group project, where they give you their project architecture and a booklet that explains what your group needs to do. Accessing Google and asking for your group members help is allowed, but you are expected to be able to write your code and generate output using their code architecture. You would be called twice for a one-on-one during the day that mainly deals with the code and your logic/reasoning. Keep coding till then. You will not have to prepare anything about your work experience/skillset or about yourself.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It is all related to explaining your choice of data structure/algorithm in your code. Nothing outside!
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Philadelphia, PA) in Feb 2015
Interview
I apply it online via campus link systems. After one week I do a coding test online. First select language and then do some problems to find out and modify bugs. You will have one week to do it. followed by phone. Just take it easy. I do not think it is too difficult but I was then declined.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2014
Interview
Applied in Grace Hopper career fair in October. Was contacted in November to take online assessment. The online assessment was for 2 hours which consisted of two basic coding questions and 25 analytical questions.
Followed by an onsite interview which consisted of four 45 minute technical interviews. Three interviews were based on data structures and algorithms. And another interview consisted of design related questions.
