I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderabad) in Jul 2010
Interview
I got shortlisted for interview via university placement programme. I was called to their office for interviews. I had 4 rounds of an hour each. All rounds focused on skills like Problem Solving, Coding, Data Structures and Algorithms. There were some puzzles in one of the rounds. One thing i want to highlight about coding is they take it seriously. You need to avoid any logical error with even the minutest of edge case and the code needs to be what they call "production ready".
The questions were pretty standard and a quick google search would tell you most of them.

Question 1
I was asked to explain my masters thesis work in detail
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.

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.
