Interview
Applied online last year, got an email asking for my availability in January, but got back to me with the interview process in March. 2 phone interviews, each about 45 minutes.
Both are technical based. The first one asked a lot of complexity and data structure questions, and the second one asked some definitions and coding. I felt alright for the first interview, but the second one just sucked. And I felt like the interviewer wasn't very good at communicating with people.
Topics covered in the interview:
1. reverse linked list
2. hash table
3. binary tree
4. Fibonacci sequence
5. chess design
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2011
Interview
It was a pretty decent experience. The interviewer had complete focus on data structures and question related to them like given a problem which data structures you will be using and why you will use it. Down below were the questions asked to me
1. How would you compare two sets of objects.
2. What is generic class.

Interview
I applied online, and 1 month later they contacted me to schedule a phone interview. The first interview consisted of two 45 minute interviews from different interviewers. Each was very similar and asked different coding questions. First one was easier and was more basic. Second one was how to detect the largest palindrome in a word.
I got contacted later for a second round phone interview, consisting of 1 45 minute interview. There was a question about Linked lists and another on detecting the first non-repeating word in a given word.
