I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2013
Interview
Phone screen was easy. Flew to Seattle. The reception was not great or special. The now famous frugal feel of the place. The meeting room was small and suffocating. Most interviewers were senior. I found the interviewers less conversational. Some of them were antagonistic. We disagreed on some issues, but instead of adjusting their questions to clarify and spell out the reason for disagreement, they repeated the same comment over and over.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2022
Interview
A total of four approximately one-hour interviews were conducted on the same day. Three interviews focused on Data Structures and Algorithms, while one focused on System Design. All four interviews start with an introduction, followed by behavioural questions and end with the technical question. The technical part last around 20 - 30 mins.
The DS and Algo questions ranged from easy to medium, depending on your level of preparation. All four technical questions may be tailored to the team, especially the system design question.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Boston, MA) in Sept 2021
Interview
Interviewed 5 hours after written test. The interviewers follows exact pattern of questions which they prepared for. I would say they need to know what they want to know but not what the candidate knows. Clearly reflects Amazon's dictatorships style of working and that's why people are working like dog there. I will never ever join Amazon with this kind of people
