I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2021
Interview
I am a masters student, and I got a direct call from recruiter through LinkedIn. (Direct onsite) It consists of 5 rounds, 3 coding, 1 system design, and 1 with Hiring Manager. You have an option to keep all your interviews either on the same day or split it over across two days. I chose second option.

2. Coding round - 1 Leetcode medium question with follow-ups (optimal solution is expected)
3. Given questions are not descriptive, needed to brainstorm input and output format
