I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Amazon (Robbinsville, NJ) in Apr 2017
Interview
Online assessment and then had a tour of facility with 3 interviews with HR, Ops and General Manager separately the following week.
Tour was very impressive and was prior to interview. I asked questions about what I saw and also took notes that would pertain to the current role I was applying for.

Amazon pretty much tells you what they are going to ask so you just need to focus.
