I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2014
Interview
The recruiter was very polite and helpful, described the position and agreed to have split interview loop since I wanted to consider 2 teams.
The process organization was awesome: timely tickets to the plane and hotel reservation, everything payed upfront, interviewers were on time.
The interview lasted from 11-00 till 16-00 and included 5 1-1 interviews: 1 interview, a lunch break, then 3 more interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
2 coding questions (pure algorithms and structures), 2 design questions, one lunch interview where I was asking questions about the team, processes and so on.
My advice is to prepare about 20 questions you'd like to ask your interviewers.

Interview
There were 6 rounds in total.
First one was a telephonic screening. Once it was cleared, was called for the remaining interviews onsite. Screening round was not different than others
Onsite interviews happened on the same day with a gap of about 15-20 mins between each and a break for lunch in betweem

All the questions were related to DS(trees,stacks,LLs), Algo(DP,Searching) and Design (low level and high level). Almost all the interviewers expected the code to be written

Interview
Incredibly well-managed, every detail was scheduled like clockwork. First round phone screen was a technical assessment in a shared coding document. Second round was an onsite with 5 rounds of coding + design questions. Interviewers clearly coordinated to avoid question overlap and test the full range of what they wanted to see. Lots of focus on Amazon's leadership principles through behavioral questions as well.
