I just interviewed and got a job offer with Amazon as a college hire. The entire interview was literally a single long-ish (a few hours) coding project in the language of your choice. No HR nonsense, no questions about my weaknesses or challenges I have faced. It was quite refreshing from other interviews. I wrote code, wrote tests, wrote documentation, got a job, no bullshit.

I've heard this is a relatively new phenomenon at Amazon; it's great that they're moving in this direction.
