I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Hyderābād) in Nov 2015
Interview
Tough....but very methodical...step by step interview process with highly knowledgeable people interviewing you at any given time. The interview started off with the interviewer asking me about my background and then progressively delving into my experience with design architecture etc. The interview also focussed on my ability to see the big picture and look at things objectively as well as subjectively. All in. All a very well conducted interview I am awaiting the further rounds of interview from guys fromUS and the actual on campus round.
it is good experience. The interviewer are polite and respectful. They would ask many questions like "tell me a time when..." and might drill down a bit based on your responses.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me a time when you make a short term pain for long term gain for the program.
El proceso es largo, en total son en promedio 7 entrevistas, de las cuales 5 son en loop, lo que significa que estas 5 entrevistas pueden ser el mismo dia, una tras otra, de una hora cada una
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon in May 2026
Interview
Lots of "story telling" they don't care about what you would do. Only "tell me a time you...". They take their time to interview and encourage many many weeks between rounds. The people and interviewers were extremely robotic and don't make it so you want to work there. Their reputation doesn't help either.
