I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Minneapolis, MN) in Mar 2019
Interview
Extremely impersonal, rushed and unfriendly. After submitting the original application through my school program we met for a technical interview. Although the questions were individual they had 40 of us in a proctored exam room for two hours to complete all of the questions.

Question 1
Technical problems asking us to provide SQL scripts demonstrating the ability to join tables and perform basic arithmetic. Also requested data visualization code in either R or python for a given problem. Lastly wanted to know how I would set up an online A/B testing scenario and how I would determine whether or not to roll out a new program given the results of the experiment.
Interview focused on analytical thinking and case studies. Main focus was on the leadership principles. First interview was a phone interview that covered a few basic questions and SQL coding. The loop had 4 rounds.

The interview process was smooth and conversational. The interviewer was calmly asking questions about my previous work experiences and listened patiently. He even gave me ample time to frame my answers.
