I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2011
Interview
My interview process went like this; I submitted my resume on website and recruiter emailed me 2 days after submitting my resume to schedule a phone interview the following week.
I don't interview over the phone well and should have asked myself these basic questions that I'm sure I use in practice all the time! Anyway - hope the experience helps someone else out!
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Describe difference between a Set and List - what are different ways of implementing them.
Interview by recuriter, Phone interview over Chime with one easy Leet code problem and 2 behavioral questions. Although the interviewer was very casual at the start of the conversation, it quickly changed into behavioral questions at the start.

Encoding optimization algorithm and talk about a project you did recently.
First round is just leet code coding which screens through AI before going into live coding. Pretty simple and straighforward. Not too tough. Recruiter walks through it pretty nicely. Not sure how many rounds there are exactly
After submitting my application for the Software Engineer position, I received an invitation to complete an automated Online Assessment (OA). The assessment consisted of standard coding challenges, primarily focusing on algorithmic and data structure problems. Unfortunately, a few days after submitting my solutions for the assessment, I received an email informing me that I would not be moving forward in the interview process and was rejected.
