I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Swedesboro, NJ) in Mar 2020
Interview
Once offered job via online, you go into for drug test and start within a week or two. The process was very simple after completing online evaluations. The typically let you know within the same day or the day after if you are a good candidate for the position.
No interview at all, you go into the hiring center, take your drug test, fill out some preliminary paperwork, verify the building and schedule you want, your start date and that's it.
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.
