I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Walsall, England) in June 2017
Interview
Not really an interview. Invited to a group event where they tell you more about the job role and complete an online test regarding your personal details. Also had to complete a drug test.
Not too bad pretty easy and straightforward, simple question surrounding handling and moving. Make sure you know basic safety rules as they will ask you, for example how do you carry heavy items.
Apply online, go to the on-site office for oral drug swab and ID picture. Start date is assigned once background check comes back. The actual start date will depend on how fast the check comes back but isn't normally delayed.
Very simple and straight forward. Drug Test and Valid ID. Very few forms to to complete and a very short waiting time. The staff was very professional and efficient. Helped you with any questions or parts that you were unsure about.
