I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2012
Interview
Applied Online. Got a reply by email asking to schedule phone interview. Phone interview was two 45 minute sessions with 2 interviewers respectively. Was asked basic data structure questions like arrays stacks queues O(n) .For ex: what is an array. Then was asked to write codes to traverse an array in O(n). and then traversing circular list in O(n).
Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
