I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Chennai) in Jul 2015
Interview
i attended amazon internship process.there were three rounds.it took two days
1-online round.it consisted of 20 datastructure Questions and 2 programming questions and both had equal importance.
2-program GD.a program's logic was to be discussed
3-interview The interview was light and hard work pays more
data structure is important ,most of the Questions were from that.
1. written paper which includes few questions from testing and few from coding puzzles.
2. f2f interview with unusual questions not related to my job area. I was asked to to optimizations again and again.
I applied for QA position not WBT nor SDET, after working for 5 years do not expect me to solve optimization problems. A QA engineer do not solve optimization difficulty in code, it's not their job. It looked as if the interviewer himself was a fresher types, so he was asking what he knows.
advice: please put experienced interviewers what should be asked from a QA engineer. do not expect him to optimize. it could be a possible case that they have already done with selections, i was their only for time pass.
