I applied through university. I interviewed at Amazon (West Lafayette, IN) in Feb 2013
Interview
Just been asked two questions
the first one is to write a sudo code for an binary heap to print out the 17th, 18th and 19th node's value.
the second one is to write codes to print out the maximum and the second maximum value in an array (not sorted). In order to reach the fastest, the interviwer gave me a hint to separate the situation with small array and large array..

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.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)
Interview
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).
