Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Washington, DC) en nov 2011
Entrevista
I was contacted by a recruiter through LinkedIn for a local Amazon interview event at my area. I sent my resume and was invited to the event, which was held in a hotel in the area. When I got there the interview day, I was told that there can be up to 4 interviews, which was the number of interviews I had. (I saw some people getting cut short after 3 interviews.) 3 of the 4 interviews were pretty much coding exercises, 1 one was a design question. They ranged from average to difficult, but not that different from what you'd expect from companies like Microsoft, Google, etc. Overall, it was an enjoyable and well organized experience.

First round is just leet code coding which screens through AI before going into live coding. Pretty simple and straighforward. Not too tough. Recruiter walks through it pretty nicely. Not sure how many rounds there are exactly
After submitting my application for the Software Engineer position, I received an invitation to complete an automated Online Assessment (OA). The assessment consisted of standard coding challenges, primarily focusing on algorithmic and data structure problems. Unfortunately, a few days after submitting my solutions for the assessment, I received an email informing me that I would not be moving forward in the interview process and was rejected.
