Solicité el puesto por otro medio. El proceso duró 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Bengaluru) en jun 2012
Entrevista
I appeared for a codesprint at interviewstreet.com for Amazon India. I could solve 4 out 4 problems. I was given two emails to send my resume to. One of them bounced and from the other I got no response. On reminder, I got out of office reply. I asked the manager mentioned in the out of office reply for updates. There was no response from him either. This process took a month. I demanded an explanation about this behavior from interviewstreet. Immediately they swung into action and the manager from Amazon replied saying that I should receive a call from HR. I got a call from Chennai HR, saying that the Bangalore HR will be call me up and schedule an interview. No response for the next 7 days, suddenly another HR person wakes up and contacts interviewstreet saying that he missed the email. I reply saying that I had been called by a HR personnel who has informed me that an interview will be scheduled with Bangalore team. More than a month no communication from Amazon side - not even a email saying that my experience does not seem to be relevant, or looks inadequate or that they have no more requirements as of now. Just to put things in perspective, I hold MTech degree in CSE from IIT and have 4 years of experience in the industry. Overall, my experience about the interview process has been not just negative but disappointing. I was interested in Amazon, as they do some work in interesting topics like machine learning, NLP etc but with this experience, I would never like to work with them.

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.

tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role
It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
