I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2019
Interview
Very very timely and productive. HR communicated and moved the process through flawlessly. Best interview process I've ever been through. Started with Recruiting info call, then call with HR, then call with Hiring Manager, then on-site 8 hour loop. Was offered the job the same day an hour after I got home.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon in Dec 2017
Interview
Applied online through a referral in October. I heard back a few days later and set up a phone interview with the recruiter. Next, I had a phone interview with the supervisor about two weeks later. About a month later I had an in person interview in the office. The in person interview lasted from 9 am to 11:30 am, and I met with four different people back to back. The interviews are challenging, so I recommend researching the Amazon leadership principles and thinking about how they relate to your own experience. Think of an example for each leadership principle.
