I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (College Station, TX) in Oct 2012
Interview
talked to recruiter at job fair, and answered simple questions about data structures and he told me I passed and to apply online. I did and got an on campus interview. The interview was all over object oriented programming. The interviewers were all very business like, no personality tests, or social skills considered.
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)
Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.
