I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2012
Interview
One of the recruiters will send an email to setup the interview, a date will be chosen of your choice.
Some employee will call on that day and will introduce himself give description of his team.
First interview went well.
He will ask coding questions on algorithms, data structures, OOPS.
Second interview is of same pattern.
This time my interviewer did not give any hints whatsoever. He waited till I was not able to solve and ended the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given an integer set of numbers, print all the subsets. For some reason the interviewer asked to print the supersets, but what he means is subsets.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
There was supposed to be two different 45 minutes interviews.
The first one called me half an hour late and was only 20 minutes
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
he asked me some java and web related questions , some I know , some I did not , some of them that I do not know was some java garbage collection related question and some sort of web cache related (different kind of cache).
The second interview was worse than the first one was a programming assignment about combing and sorting 2 different arrays , my mistake was that I asked her if she needed the repeated numbers to show or not. any way the most ridiculous part was that she hung on me about 4 times!!! and called me back again for some weird background situation that I am not aware of . she was so careless , my another stupidity was that I told her my program was not doing exactly what it was supposed to do (she asked me to sent it to her by email) , she was so careless and distracted , doubt she would have even looked at it...
any way , when she was hanging up for the last time , it was so obvious that she was unsatisfied , and I got the nice looking rejection email (after careful consideration... blah blah) , a week later
