I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2015
Interview
1) Several recruiter calls, then...
2) Two one-hour one-on-one phone interviews with people on the team with the opening, then....
3) Provide a sample of your work output. For me it involved writing a 6-page (max) persuasive letter to a fictional CIO & CFO on why they should use AWS. I was provided a synopsis of the fictional company, their concerns, their personalities, etc,, and was given a week to write that letter. IF you pass that hurdle, then...
4) A one-day interview blitz with six people, one-on-one, in succession.

Question 1
They will grill you for examples from your past work life. It's all behavioral interview stuff: e.g. "Tell me about a time where you had to convince a difficult co-worker to go in a different direction".
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (San Paolo del Brasile, )
Interview
O processo é super fluído e rápido. Inicia-se com um phone screen para entendimento de adequação cultural e requisitos básicos da role. Após isso passa para um loop com 4 ou 5 entrevistadores onde no geral se pedem cases ligados ao principios da Amazon. Após essa fase já existe um comitê decidindo pela offer ou não.
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.

Did a test task and was called by HR almost immediately for the next round. But salary range (full packet with stock and benefits) and return to office policy did nit much my expectations
