I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Gainesville, FL) in Mar 2013
Interview
I applied at the college career fair by just turning in my resume. I received an e-mail for a phone interview about a week later. I had two 45-minute phone interviews(with two different interviewers from the same development team) in one day. I was at a computer, writing code for the questions they asked.
Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
First round with hr screening - 2 leetcode questions then hr manager screening then the loop which consists of 4 interviews each an hour long. The 4 interview questions they asked where three medium leetcode questions. And one system design interview question about how to shadow deploy a test software to millions of users.
Recruiter reaches out after applying through Amazon careers, no referral. Had an initial OA, then after a month had four rounds in two days - three coding one system design. Each round had 30 min behavioral and 30 min coding.
