I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2015
Interview
Amazon found me through Linkin. Had two arranged interview done. First was informative questions then followed by technical interview which was set later after a week. Joining the conference for interview call didn't work for me and i thought they will call me direct to my number instead and didn't happen but it was resorted to use Hangout as medium to communications. Thanks to google video call Hangout. It was not a very good experience but it works anyway.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
