I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2019
Interview
Invited to HireVue interview + SHL numerical reasoning aptitude test. A few days later, asked for my availability for a phone screen with HR. The SHL test was not like the practise test, more business oriented, and less oriented towards percentages, fractions, brain teasers... Ability to read horribly tables (two tables in one, not tidy data). Read up on financial terms.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Apr 2019
Interview
There was a miscommunication between the HR and the interviewer, so the interview was 20 minutes late. Overall, the interview was very technical. I was asked many stats questions regarding different business scenarios that Amazon encounters on a daily basis.

Interview
This was the worst interview process I've ever been through, I was personally offended by one interviewer in particular and am astounded this person would be allowed to speak with candidates and represent their company. I am also astounded that there is a policy that they will not provide feedback for candidates, but ask that we provide feedback for them. I am inclined to follow the same policy they've set forth in the interviewing process, which means not giving advice for how they can improve. If they're going to ask for feedback from candidates, they should be willing to give feedback as well. The company as a whole gave me the vibe that they were doing me a favor interviewing me and that I was lucky to be interviewing for a spot there... make no mistake the company would have been lucky to have me and missed great talent as I left my onsite visit positive that I would never work there after the way I was treated, no matter how high the potential offer was. The idea that from the start no feedback would be provided to me, only furthers the air of arrogance coming from the company - not a culture I am attracted to.
