I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Sep 2010
Interview
They picked my resume from monster.com. I got a mail to schedule a phone interview and they asked me to apply for software development position on their website.
The interview was purely technical. The interviewer asked mostly data structures and algorithms questions; binary search tree, linked lists, complexities of some known algorithms etc. There was one coding question. The interviewer asked to explain how I would go about solving the problem and then gave 1 hour to code and mail it.

Question 1
Gave a string of characters and asked them to store in a binary search tree in such a way that it can be extracted in exactly the same order.
Great interview process with three rounds, including a technical assessment and a technical interview. The interviewers were professional and supportive throughout the process. The questions mainly focused on DSA, problem-solving, and core technical concepts. The discussions were engaging and provided a good opportunity to demonstrate technical skills. Overall, the process was well-structured, smooth, transparent, and a very positive experience.

Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.
