I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Dublin, Dublin) in Jan 2016
Interview
Several technical questions, some soft skills, you need to prepare yourself for questions related to amazon the leadership principles and experiences from the past, you need to study hard prepare for difficult questions at very basic level (TCP / UDP / PROTOCOLS / OSI model / troubleshooting tools, booting process)
It was a 4 round loop. The first two rounds focused on networking and troubleshooting, plus questions about your domain. The last two rounds are just answering questions using leadership principles in STAR format.
The interview was smooth. Recruiter reached out with an invitation to an online assessment, then a phone interview 1 hour and interview loop scheduled after that. It had 4 rounds
