The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2021
Interview
I had a phone interview, which I passed, and 10 days later the "loop interview" (where you talk to 4-6 different employees, depending on the position you're applying).
In the phone interview, the interviewer asked me 2 behavorial questions and then we did a Business Case (a role playing in which I was an Amazon Account Manager and had to convince a possible vendor in order to sell his products through Amazon).
In the loop interview, each interviewer asked me 2-4 behavorial questions and with the last interviewer I also had a Business Case similar to the one from the phone interview.
