I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2015
Interview
I applied throught the amazon carrers page, I was contacted by email and they scheduled a phone interview, it was a technical filter. They were very fast, the only thing I didn't like is that I didn't get any feedback after the interview. These guys are hard to please, however they were very professional at all times.
a bit of a headache but overall okay once things were sorted. did not get confirmation of interview details and had to follow up more than once to confirm, but i think it was just that i got lost in the pile. understandable since i think there might have been a ton of applicants. the interviewers were polite but seemed harried
It was quite programming based. Anyway, it was not too hard. It was done in multiple rounds. The interviewer ask mainly about my experience in the field and asked questions about the work i had to do after i get selected.
The interview process at OpenAI was structured and thorough, spanning approximately three weeks. It comprised the following stages:
Recruiter Phone Screen (30 minutes): An initial conversation focusing on my background, motivations for applying, and alignment with OpenAI's missio
