I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in May 2015
Interview
I had one of the worst experiences at Amazon among all the job interviews i have given so far. I was called for a f2f interview and after 6 technical rounds, they rejected me. I regretted not getting a offer. But after few days, i got a call from HR team again for the same positions. They asked me to interview again, citing it was for a different team. I was foolish to pursue this. I gave 7 technical interviews. This time, HR confirmed me that they would like to extend me the offer. I was happy. Many days passed but i did not receive any communication from them. Finally, after asking persistently, they said they are not extending this offer. And declined to give a reason why so. Pathetic experience ever !!
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2015
Interview
I have been applying to Amazon for one and half year for various intern and full time positions. Got a mail in June to take an online test. Result of which came one month later and I had to take another online test(simulation + coding). Then, I got onsite two months later for a whole day coding challenge. There was a group of three people each, and a total of eight such groups. Discussion with in group was allowed but coding was individual. A laptop, desired OS and IDE were provided. There was like 5-6 hours for coding and two interviews in between with proctors- 45 minute and 15 minute each.
The proctors were welcoming and helpful in discussing solutions etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Signed the NDA, so can not tell. But if you regularly practice programming then it should not be that difficult to design and code the solution.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
The interview takes 2 weeks. Because of NDA, I can't tell much about the specific question, but
all the interview questions are about general algorithm, which you can easily found in Cracking The Coding Interview or Leetcode.
