I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Cincinnati, OH) in Jul 2013
Interview
Very Tough. 5 hr pod. 4 different interviews, each 50 mins. Use the STAR method of interviewing. They drill down to get the details to verify the story
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to make a decision with little data. How did you handle it and what was the result?
Was called for telephonic interview first. The HR asked few metrics based question and team handling. Just wondering how the direct interview will be. I have been asked to walk in for a direct interview. Will keep you guys posted.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2014
Interview
Quick process. Meeting recruiter at hiring fair. Received an email about 2 weeks later to set-up phone interview. Interview was with a Senior Operations Manager and really just served to see if Amazon was a fit. Waiting to hear back.

Question 1
Ask a few work flow questions. Must admit (and was told) that my logic was spot on, but the actual math was a touch off. Just be ready.
