I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Nov 2025

Intense, but the ability to learn was super beneficial. Felt more open than an interview. Interviews were long/tedious but questions got difficult. Interviewers helped throughout the process and if more time was given, ability to ask about work life.
online programming questions, 2 question to be solved in 70 minutes, can run tests and add custom testing in the online IDE, if you run out of time, the window is locked out.
