I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon (Rochester, NY) in Feb 2015
Interview
I was approached through the campus recruitment team for an online assessment test. The test was of 1.5 hours and consisted of 2 sections. The first section was a debugging test to check if you're able to understand someone else's code and debug the logical errors in it. The second section was to check the analytic ability. I am waiting for their reply
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2014
Interview
No interest in background, resume, or past projects. Both interviewers seemed disinterested and standoffish. Jumped right into the coding questions, which were typical questions on data structures, searching, and sorting. The first interviewer seemed unsatisfied by my initial answers but didn't say why, which threw me off. The second interviewer was a bit more verbose and seemed better prepared for the interview overall. It wasn't quite an amazing experience, but it wasn't altogether terrible either.
