I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2017
Interview
Long and exhausting, could be 6+ interviews excluding phone screens and follow ups. Mix of behavior questions and technical problems to solve, both coding and large scale systems design. No way to pass without proper preparation.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
System design and strong LPs are the key deferential to get an offer.
They asked some dynamic programming questions and algorithm question especially bfs and dept first search. Firstly an online exam you must pass. Then face to face meeting you can do.

Question 1
Bfs and DFS algorithm questions and complexity calculation
I applied online
Then I had a Recruter contacting me
Then I had to take an online exam
Then I had a 1:1 call with a technical development manager
The process was very smooth, but the person who did the call with me was very un welcoming and super hard to understand
If I asked him to explain or repeat something I didn’t hear, he says never mind I have another question
It was very un professional of him acting this way,
