I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2012
Interview
When the recruiter approached me, I have asked for intermediate position, instead of telling me I may not be qualified, they sign me up for SDE I anyway. I did not understand their corporate structure so I had no idea. I should have suspected it when I find the interview questions so easy I can answer them in my sleep. In retrospect, my job is so operational in nature, they shouldn't have asked me computer science questions. Just test me on my ability to follow a huge amount of trivial instruction, I would have rightly failed. They didn't tell me that I would have to pay back my relocation expense in the contract, except that I have to... Now I am trapped in a job I suck at
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.

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.
