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!

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.
