I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2014
Interview
Applied online through Amazon's career site. Emailed back two days later to schedule a phone interview. Recommended me to look through a list of Amazon "Leadership Principles" to familiarize myself with. The job does not have a defined career path, but if you want to work for a company like Amazon, I would say go for it.

Question 1
Nothing too difficult. Many behavioral interview questions such as, Tell me a time when you had a customer who was hard to deal with?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
I found amazon to be a very hard company to get an interview with unless you have an MBA or have someone internally refer you. I was fortunate enough to have an interview as I was internally referred, The process is long (normally 2 phone interviews and then a 'day' of interviews in the office). I made it to the 2nd phone interview but did not get any further as I did not have the specific experience they were looking for.

Question 1
The questions are very specific to their 14 leadership principles. So make sure you have answers prepared with examples that relate to these leadership principles which can be found on their website.
had first quick phone interview with a polite recruiter then a second telephone interview was arranged. Interviewer was unfriendly and did not try to build a rapport at all. I'm grateful that I've not been invited for one to one interviews based on my experience as well as many other reviews. not worth your time and preparation
