I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2013
Interview
1) contacted by HR by my online job profile
2) online coding test (1 hour for develop a working algorithm about sorting/searching)
3) phone call with HR to have a preview of possible questions in the technical interviews
4) interview day in Milan, for a total of 4 technical interviews of 1-hour (each step was made of: algorithm/design question + behavioral question + few minutes to get useful informations about working in Amazon.
Given a target integer M, and an array A of N integers, write a function to find all the pairs of indexes (i,j) where A[i]+A[j]=M.
Suppose to have enough space.
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.
