The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2010
Interview
I came across a job opening through Dice.com. I heard back from the recruiter after a couple of weeks and she fixed a phone interview. The interviewer first started out by asking me questions about my resume and my current job and then he went on to technical questions. I managed to make it to the second phone interview which also consisted of technical questions related to algorithms and data structures.

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.
