I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in May 2012
Interview
I did two phone screens and then came in for an in-person loop, where I met with approximately 7 people including a lunch interview. It took a few days to hear the final decision; recruiting seemed to move a little slow, but I'm sure it was due to the schedules of all involved with the interview.

Question 1
Tell me about a project you were working on that was receiving resistance and/or not gaining the traction you needed to. What was the situation and how did you manage through it?
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (São Paulo, )
Interview
O processo é super fluído e rápido. Inicia-se com um phone screen para entendimento de adequação cultural e requisitos básicos da role. Após isso passa para um loop com 4 ou 5 entrevistadores onde no geral se pedem cases ligados ao principios da Amazon. Após essa fase já existe um comitê decidindo pela offer ou não.
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.

Did a test task and was called by HR almost immediately for the next round. But salary range (full packet with stock and benefits) and return to office policy did nit much my expectations
