I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon in Oct 2014
Interview
My first interview was in July and it took almost 3 months for the entire process. I had 2 telephonic interviews followed by 1 Onsite (5 interviews + HR info session). I also had to complete a Writing assessment as part of the process. Most of the questions were straight forward and it was just a question of identifying theleadership principle and tying it back to the relevant experiences in your resume.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I was contacted from an on-line application. The first phone screen was with a hiring coordinator. The second phone call was with a recruiter who asked more in-depth questions about my background, my level of interest. The recruiter set the boundaries for the interview with someone who was currently a Sr. Program Manager. The final phone call was with the hiring manager. I was never invited for an on-site interview. The questions were looking for thoughtful detailed answers. Everyone from Amazon was professional, timely, and extremely helpful.

Interview
Online Assessment + 2 rounds of 2 interviews each. Interviews were relatively alright, with a couple of tough questions in them. Mostly they were about how my various previous experience/skill sets match with Amazon's core leadership principles.
