Amazon Non Software Development Engineer interview questions

Seemingly painless. Four 45 minutes interviews. Not particularly hard if you know your stuff. Big emphasis on memory and design questions. Each interviewer told me to tell them a little about myself, then asked various technical questions. Typical technical interview from a big company.

I had already gone through one phone screen which went very well. I was contacted via email by my recruiter to set up an onsite interview. I was in Seattle, WA for 3 days, 2 nights in a nice hotel not far from HQ in the heart of downtown Seattle. The interview was administered on the second day. It went from 11-4 and included 5 1:1 interviews—including the non-technical, hiring manager interview during lunch. Aside from the lunch interview—which was one hour long—all of the interviews were 45 minutes long. Amazon lives up to the reputation of administering difficult interviews. I was asked design questions, algorithm questions, language-specific knowledge questions, and various other questions. All in all, I really enjoyed the experience. The people I met were genuine and real. It was obvious that you could simply be yourself at Amazon; from your opinions to your clothing, they not only allow you to be yourself, the demand it.
