I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Nov 2018
Interview
During the Interviewing process, you were first greeted by the hiring manager. Keep in mind there are other candidates interviewing at the same time. You spend about 3 hours interviewing with 3 different employees from Amazon. They asked the same technical questions from the initial phone screen interview and a lot of their questions are based on the leadership principles. At the end of the interview, the hiring manager didn't even have the common courtesy to walk us out the door without even saying goodbye at the least. Instead, the hiring manager had an intern walk us out. For a company that focuses on "Customer Service", the hiring manager seemed to lack that quality.

Question 1
Name time where you weren't able to complicate a project on time.
They ask a lot of technical trivia questions that have nothing to do with the job. They like hearing stories about how you raised the bar and/or made your prior job better. Be familiar with the STAR method.
Panel interview with 4 people. One hour with each interviewer who will ask 2 to 4 questions based on leadership principles related to the job role you are applying for.
