I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in May 2018
Interview
The process was very straightforward and detailed in the first email you are sent from the recruiting team. Three rounds - basic coding and logical exercises, a more involved second round, and a final video interview. The recruiters were very quick about responding and helpful throughout the process.

Interview
2 Coding Challenges, offer immediately after. No phone call or in person meeting was scheduled. The first coding challenge was all logic based, the second was coding tests in Java and Python.
I met with a representative at my school's career fair, who sent me an email with a link to an application for an intern position. The application requested standard information, and soon after, I was given a few coding challenges online.
The first session began with a set of seven debugging questions, for which they allowed me 21 minutes total to solve. The first session also included a 35-minute multiple-choice aptitude test that included Caeser cipher and Vigenère cipher questions along with many logic questions. After completing this session, I received another email after some time for another coding session.
The second coding session was certainly harder than the first session. It consisted of two problem statements for which I had to write functions to solve them. I had 70 minutes in total to complete them.
These coding sessions were all online without me having to interact with anyone. Everything that could have been recorded was recorded, however. They recorded my screen, me, and audio. They also said that they placed restrictions on opening windows/tabs as I was doing the interview (but I didn't try this, so I don't know for sure).
