J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Seattle, WA) en mars 2012
Entretien
Usual questions on data structures, algorithms; some questions about my research in machine learning and computer vision ; Some open-ended research questions in machine learning, data mining, information retrieval etc (collaborative filtering, predictive modeling).

Pretty fast and well-organized interview process. Scheduling was easy, communication of different interview expectations was clear, and feedback came quickly after each stage, which made the overall experience quite smooth.
