I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Leipzig) in Aug 2012
Interview
Es war ein glattes Interview mit Fragen wie: Warum möchten Sie für Amazon arbeiten, was ist Ihre bevorzugte Programmiersprache, was ist OOP, geben Sie ein Beispiel, bei dem eine Programmierung in OOP anstelle einer funktionalen Programmierung erforderlich ist, können Sie ein konkretes Beispiel angeben, was ist Polymorphismus, und einige grundlegende Fragen zu Datenbanken.

Question 1
Entwerfen Sie einen einheitlichen Geldautomaten, der zwar aus mechanischen Gründen kein Geld ausgibt, aber trotzdem die Bilanz ausgeglichen lässt.
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.
