The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2011
Interview
My interview consisted of two phone interviews separated by a week and then a final contact a week later telling me that they were going with other candidates. The interviews focused primarily on programming and general development knowledge.
The questions are listed below.
The interviewers were very helpful in describing the problem if you didn't understand the specifics and would ask you to look at specific areas of your code and see if you could improve it. All-in-all it was a good if stressful experience. I am not certain exactly what qualities they are looking for, but I would suggest a month of brushing up on your algorithms and general CS knowledge before you apply unless you are some sort of coding god. Good luck!

Question 1
The difference between and interface and an abstract class
Using only putchar how would you print out the ascii values for each digit in an integer. For example if the integer was 123, then you would want to print the ascii values for 1, 2, and 3.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
Um teste de código online, se aprovado, vai para o loop. O loop é 4 entrevistas seguidas, duas em inglês e duas em português. 3 entrevistas técnicas de código, todas as 4 têm pergunta de liderança.

Question 1
Pergunta historicas baseada nos principios de lideranca da amazon.
The whole process stretched over nearly a month, longer than I anticipated. After an initial phone screen, I faced a technical round that included a Min Stack implementation question. We discussed design considerations and thread safety, which threw me for a bit. Fortunately, I remembered a specific mock interview I practiced on PracHub that mirrored this scenario closely, making me feel more at ease. Ultimately, I received an offer, but I chose to decline due to the company culture not feeling like the right fit.
