The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2011
Interview
Hi,
There are 2 rounds of phone interview and a on-site to get into Amazon. I cleared first phone interview in which they asked me only two questions. One was to convert int to string without using any library and second one was to generate random numbers again without using any library.
After 2 weeks I have to write a follow-up mail and then they set up aother phone interview in which they mostly asked about data structure, sorting and C/C++ question.
I waited for 4 weeks and after 2 follow-up mail, I received a reject mail.

It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.

Interview
The interview process consisted of an online assessment followed by two technical interview rounds and one behavioral round. The technical rounds focused on Data Structures, Algorithms, Java, and problem-solving skills. The behavioral round covered Amazon Leadership Principles and past project experiences. The interviewers were professional and the process was well structured.
