I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2010
Interview
I had applied to Amazon.com through their careers site. After a dew days I got an email from one of the recruiter to schedule an interview for the position I had applied for. I gave my dates & time available for the interview and was contacted back with the final date & timing of the interview. Since it a new grad position, knowledge of computer science basics was important. Hence my focus was on knowing a lot of the data structures & algorithms taught in college & on wiki. I had read some standard interview questions of the programming languages that I had mentioned in my skills.

The whole process stretched over nearly a month, longer than I anticipated. After an initial phone screen, I faced a technical round that included a Min Stack implementation question. We discussed design considerations and thread safety, which threw me for a bit. Fortunately, I remembered a specific mock interview I practiced on PracHub that mirrored this scenario closely, making me feel more at ease. Ultimately, I received an offer, but I chose to decline due to the company culture not feeling like the right fit.
