I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2012
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter through LinkedIn. After initial screening, they invited me to attend interview onsite.
Very friendly interviewers and I had lot of fun during the interviews. Interview consisted of 3 regular 1:1 interview + 1 bar raiser interview - each about 45 mins and about 10 mins for the candidates to ask any questions.
1. Very simple data structure question
2. How do you design type question. Lots of what if this happens and what are the assumptions type question.
3. Bar raiser interview: Another design type of question with lots of open ends.
4. Another design related question with respect to 3G technology.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of the interviewers is an expert in 3G technology. He posed me a question related to the inner workings of 3G technology. I am aware of how the internet works, TCP stacks, DNS, DHCP, and all that... I had no idea what kind of protocols are deloyed on 3G.
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.
