I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Was an offsite interview with a specific team from HQ. A few members of the team had come down to fill up some positions. They have a ton of openings (meaning loads of cool roles you could fit into) and the recruiters are not just judging you for specific requirements. The interviews will be done to see if you would fit into the organization.. and then comes the question of your fit into the team. Very professional and thorough.. All the interviewers were very polite and will work with (help) you to get your ideas flowing!
