Interview
Applied online, had interview with HR - followed by another technical interview
HR interview was standard however for the technical interview they went right into questions regarding software development. This was odd because neither did I apply for software development role, nor did I ever mention that was my targeted area
At one point I even had to tell the interviewer that my expertise is in infrastructure, and management - not software development!
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Chennai) in Jul 2015
Interview
I applied for the job through linkedin and got a call from Talent Aquisition team.
I had a telephonic discussion with hiring manager who is in Seattle and this was a screening test.
Few days later I had four back to back discussions for 4 ours over video conference with hiring manager, technical architect, project manager and director. After couple of days I had in person discussion with another director. Also I had to provide a 2 page write up on couple of questions that were sent to me in mail.

Interview
Overall, I had a positive experience interviewing at Amazon. I think the process was very slow though. I had 3 phone interviews and after every interview I didn't hear back for a week. Sometimes I had to ping HR on whats the outcome. I was in no hurry as I wasn't considering other companies but in this fast paced world I think Amazon is definitely losing out with such hiring processes.
I finally got an invitation for onsite interviews 2weeks back. All the people who interviewed were really good and knowledgeable in their area. I enjoyed the experience. Even though during the process it struck me as well as few interviewers that I might not be the right fit for the role as this position was kind of 1st tier support manager and in my current role I manage a team of DBAs. One and half week after the interview it was finally a "No Offer" which I was expecting.
