I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Las Vegas, NV) in Apr 2014
Interview
It was interesting. I met with four interviewers. The first round I spoke with a a guy and a gal. I thought it went well even though I was extremely nervous. After that I met with a nice woman, then I met with another female via conference call. I'd have to say it beat having to go there 3 times over the course of a few weeks. Overall I thought the interview process was pleasant. The conference call portion was something I have never experienced before.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The one question I hate. Where do you see yourself in 5 years. It is not a bad question, just not a question I like all that much.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Phone interview with recruiter was a very bad experience. Her phone kept cutting out during the call and when trying to answer the question, she talked over me and didn't allow me to finish my answers. I was ready to end the interview 1/2 way and withdraw my interest. She also cut me off to tell me that she has another interview in a few minutes so I needed to answer the question quickly. If this is how they treat applicants, why would I want to be employed there!!!

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Hebron, KY) in Jun 2016
Interview
The whole process took almost a month and a half. It is very difficult to get an interview, I had to search for recruiters on LinkedIn. Once I did I got an initial phone interview, then a second interview with the HR manager at the facility I was interested in. Finally I did an onsite interview in which I did a tour of the facility followed by three in person interviews. One interview with a senior HRBP, one with the hiring manager and a final interview with an operations manager. The interview questions were pretty straight forward behavioral based/situational questions. If you've done one then you already know what to expect. It was a pretty simple but interesting process. I got to learn a lot about the company before any offer was made. My final interviews were on a Friday, and by Monday night I had an answer.
