I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2016
Interview
I applied online. A couple of weeks later, I had an initial phone screen (questions about my resume and past experiences, some personality questions). I received a written problem to solve a few days later. Then, I had two 1:1 interviews. These had some questions on personality and previous experiences, and some hypothetical questions on new business challenges.
