The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2010
Interview
One hour interview. Was asked to describe my previous projects, what were the challenges, how do i approach them, what do I consider as my best achievement so far. He described the usual problems they solve in their department. Overall very pleasant and polite person. Apologized for asking to write code and read him over the phone, but it was not a problem to me.
