round 1: Online Assessment which is 4 hours long but it realistically takes about 3 with 70 minutes for the two coding questions. It included two leetcode type questions, a work simulation test, and behavioral/work-style questions
2nd round: 3x60 interview. 3 hour long interviews back to back with the first round being both technical and behavioral, i.e the interviewer asking behavioral questions as well as coding and the 2nd round being only technical with the interviewer asking only coding questions. 3rd round was purely behavioral.

Question 1
Tell us about a time where you left a company or an organization better than when you came to it
The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Arlington, VA) in Sep 2024
Interview
One online coding challenge, recruiter call, then onsite with 4 interviews: 3 coding and 1 system design. The recruiter was very flexible in finding an onsite date and the onsite experience was seamless. The coding challenge included behavioral questions and system design questions I was not expecting.

Question 1
Design TinyURL system design. Build an LRUCache coding question. Other coding questions too.
3.5 - 4 hours for an online assessment is absurd. I thought a 2 hour coding assessment was too long. So many hoops to jump through just for a ghost job.
