I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Sept 2021
Interview
One Online Interview started with an introduction followed by three coding questions. The interviewer Was very helpful gave quite a few hints. He was quite interested in correctness of the code as well as the time and space complexity of the course

Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
