J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon
Entretien
I applied for back around the end of 2012. I got an email a few weeks later from a recruiter scheduling a technical phone interview with me at a certain time on a certain day. When the day and time came, I waited for 20 minutes and they never called or contacted me in any form. I sent them an email saying that I never got contacted by the interviewer, and I didn't get a response until nearly 24 hours later. I find this to be unprofessional, and when we tried to reschedule it, they said that a lot of the employees wouldn't be around during the time. At this time, I also had a job offer that I had really wanted, so I declined any other interviews/interview attempts with them.

Surprisingly easy — I expected tougher questions, but the coding round felt more like a warm-up. The main challenge was a DSA problem about counting islands in a 2D grid, which led to a discussion on DFS versus BFS and handling large grids. Funny enough, I had revisited that exact type of question while prepping on PracHub, which made me feel more confident. The interview wrapped up with a behavioral round, and I accepted an offer, but ultimately decided to decline it for another opportunity. Overall, it was a smooth experience.

Question 1
Number of Islands — given a 2D grid of '1's (land) and '0's (water), count the number of connected islands. Walk through DFS vs BFS, and discuss how to avoid revisiting cells (in-place mutation vs visited set) and what changes if the grid is huge and must stream from disk.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
