I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2021
Interview
Amazon has multiple rounds of interviews including a phone chat, then an online quiz, then I had another phone chat (mid-pandemic). They really think they are something special. To me it felt like a waste of time.
