I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2016
Interview
Standard phone interview. You need to review Amazon's leadership principles and think of examples beforehand. Lots of "Can you tell me a time when...?". The interview was a bit more than half an hour.
