I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2011
Interview
Contacted by the recruiter from Amazon thru email about a position. Set up a technical phone screen and no response since then. The bad part is before the interview, the recruiter from Amazon forget to copy and paste the job description. Sent an email asked for that and no response. Kind of a chaos in the Amazon recruiting dept. The interview overall is typical Amazon phone screen with lots of coding question base on fundamental CS that hasn't used in my work for 10 years. Really need to sharpen my own interview skill now i think. lol :)

Question 1
Coding question with follow up on how efficient is that
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.

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.
