I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2012
Interview
Went straight to a full-on technical interview (set of 4). No behavioral or phone interview. Four interviews back to back with four different interviewers. Questions weren't that hard. Did terrible on the first one but thought I did well on the other 3.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2012
Interview
This was an entry-level position, specifically for the Amazon Fulfillment team. I had two phone interviews that I thought went really well, but no offer. Basic algorithm and computer science questions. One coding problem to solve each interview. Both interviewers were nice and easy to work with. Like I said, I thought I did really well, but apparently not. So don't get your hopes up too much, even if you're a female/minority and are good enough to receive two phone-interviews. It doesn't mean anything.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None of the questions were difficult. First interview question was about an array and finding all pair values that add up to a target number. Second question was, given an array, find as many permutations as possible in randomly ordering the array.
