Interview
Weird, disorganized process that told me everything I needed to know about Amazon. I met with recruiters at an on-campus career fair, and they were thrilled with my experience and willingness to relocate and adapt to the position. I was told if I didn't get a message from them in two weeks to reach out to them and I was given the recruiter's information. After two weeks and no contact, I reached out, and a week after I reached out I was told that someone would contact me regarding a phone interview. A week later someone did, and we spoke on the phone about the position and what I was looking for. The recruiter said an Engineer would be in touch for a technical interview, but never was. I waited two weeks, reached out twice over the next two weeks after that, and received no responses.

Applied online, was invited to an on-campus proctored test. The test lasted 3.5 hours and had sections on code debugging, logic puzzles, 2 coding questions and a work style survey. The possible outcomes were either direct rejection, direct hiring, or a followup phone interview based on your test performance. I was invited to do an additional phone interview. This consisted of questions on my resume, 2 coding questions, and a 10 minute Q&A time.
