I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2012
Interview
I was contracted by the recruiter. Then I got 2 phone interviews. Basic questions about data structure and algorithms. Then I get a on-site interview of meeting 7 people in five rounds. They asked the data structure and design problems. All interviews are very nice and helpful in guiding you to the right track.

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 (Sídney)
