The second round of interviews is about 6-7 hours and focuses heavily on AWS Leadership Principals. You sit with several perspective team members and one objective guest. The interview is timed and will possibly have multiple interviewers at once.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services

Interview process was way too cumbersome for any job. Over 7 interviews only for them to deny you a job. It was not worth the hassle. Be prepared for this.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What does frugality in the workplace mean to you, and how do you demonstrate a commitment to frugality?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services in Oct 2018
Interview
5 back to back interviews with a lunch in the middle. Interviews were with hiring manager, 2 of his peers, skip level and one outside the org (adjacent org) leader for bar raiser.
All interviews try and hit some leadership values, so the key is to identify which leadership principles they could connect to while providing your response. A standard STAR format works great.
