I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Portland, OR)
Interview
The warehouse associates were mass hired. Basically if you had a HS Diploma or a GED you'd get hired. There was a hiring event, which many thought (myself included) would be an interview but anyone that showed up with the necessary documents and passed the mouth swab drug screening is hired.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Harrisburg, PA) in Jul 2015
Interview
It was a direct hiring event. I had to provide my I.D. took about two questionnaires. After passing the questionnaire I was directed to choose which shift I would like and then took a brief class and drug test.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (San Bernardino, CA) in Feb 2015
Interview
series of simple questions about your work ethic and value as well as experience. It could either be done in a group or 1:1. I had to reschedule and do a 1:1 which I liked better. Overall, as long as your a good natured person and can show that you have some of the values of Amazon its easy to get a job. I highly recommend forming answers before your interview. They are all typical Behavioral Analysis questions.
