Interview
I applied online on their site, I had a numerical test and then a phone interview for 30 minutes. The woman on the phone was friendly and started off the interview with questions about my education, background and details about the role. Then I was asked the generic questions about solving problems, how would I notice if someone was not doing so well in their role etc.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Baltimore, MD) in Nov 2014
Interview
Was pretty fast once it got rolling. They are looking for the best. They want people who are better than 5% of the people already working. Major growth opportunities so try to be very open to all opportunities presented. Be prepared to travel for the interview. They will help provide you with a car, hotel, accommodations for your spouse , etc. there is no comparison to the relocation policy. It's fantastic.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2015
Interview
Reached out to by a recruiter after a campus visit. Drove to another city for the interview. Interview process began with a case study that lasted 15 minutes and then two 45 minute interviews with two senior leadership employees from across the country. The case study was relatively easy and the two interviewers were pleasant and easy to strike up conversation with.
