I'd be happy to get you into the interview process, or at least point you in the right direction. My experience at Amazon has been great. I don't know anyone who cries at their desk, works 80 hours per week, or feels like they're being pushed through a meat grinder. I worked for Microsoft before Amazon, and that was brutal. You'll find bad teams at every large company. One of my friends was on one at Google.

I'd love to have a go at the interview process if it's possible. I had an interview process a while back (at the end of April I believe) but I don't know what went wrong - I kept getting calls from Amazon (Seattle number) claiming I had not done the test (which I had already done) and the HR folks mentioning I was not selected - and to try 6 months later. I would definitely like to have another go at it, if possible.

    Not anymore :) I've gotten 3 emails from employees there after this thread. Mind if I ask you why you removed it?

I'd take you up on that offer. I'd love to have a third crack at it. I've had two coding challenges within that last year. One for an internship and one for a full time position (earlier today no reply yet don't expect one). The problem for me is I freeze. As soon as the "testing" type pressure gets put on I go cold and freeze. Then as soon as the test is over I can pull alllllll the information forward. It sucks because I struggle with CS exams too. Every time I have a test I freeze until I'm out of time and as soon as I leave a room it all comes back.
