I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Irvine, CA) in Mar 2014
Interview
The entire process from first contact to job offer is approximately 1 month's time. Very personal communications and open to a lot of questions. Waiting on the offer/nonoffer
I interviewed at Amazon (Louisville, KY) in Dec 2013
Interview
After submitting an application online, I received an invitation by email to do a webcam interview. This was the second webcam interview I've ever been asked to do, and unlike the first one, Amazon's webcam interview only gives you one shot to record answers the questions it asks. Luckily the questions were easy, with one short answer (typed response) question at the end. After a week or so, I was invited to visit a fulfillment center for a tour and 4 quick 30-minute interviews. Seeing first-hand how Amazon implements simplicity and customer-focus into every process in its fulfillment center was very interesting. I received a phone call 1.5 weeks after the visit to notify me I will not be receiving an offer.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
First phone interview in the process. Questions about your previous leadership experience. One was how you solved a seemingly difficult problem with a simple solution. Another was how you coached and mentored individuals below you to succeed. Also there was a simple simple math question. Took about 30 mins.
