The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2009
Interview
The people I talked to are smart. The onsite interview was quite exhausting. I talked to 6 people within 4.5 hours. Interview still went on over lunch. Some of the interview questions were tough and hard to prepare in advance as they asked for my opinions on product/marketing strategies or my thought process in analyzing data for business decisions when I only had a few seconds to think.

Question 1

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2008
Interview
Amazon likes to put candidates in small little rooms (what I think of as interrogation rooms) and grill them all day. (In reality, these are their standard meeting rooms.) Amazon is exceedingly data-centric, and for positions like the one I was interviewing, it is important, but for a Product Management position, I think it's stressed too heavily. I was interviewed by developers about algorithms at one point!

Question 1
They will ask many questions about the current service and how it can be improved.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2009
Interview
Was contacted initially by HR. HR was very friendly and responded promptly to any of my inquiries during the interview process. I was asked some basic questions by HR, then had a phone interview scheduled with the hiring manager. Unfortunately my phone interview had to be rescheduled a couple of times over a month without much notice. After I had the interview, the hiring manager felt I was a better fit for another position, I was referred to another hiring manager. I had a phone interview with that hiring manager, and think they were looking for someone a little more technical.
