I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Florence, KY) in Sep 2017
Interview
The interview process is non existent . Besides the assessment that is taken online they do not conduct a formal interview . This may be due to the amount of employees they have to hire and turn over rate . When you arrive you watch a video at which time any questions are answered. Then you move to pick a shift , complete any docs you didn't do at home , take picture , and complete drug test . When completing the last steps they did not call people based on time they showed up for the HIRE process instead just let people randomly come up . They should have a number process that will allow them assist on a first come basis . There should not be incentive for those who show up later or barley on time . Especially since that is when shifts are picked. They should also tell you amount of time to allot for the process especially since it took more than 90 minutes.
No interview at all, you go into the hiring center, take your drug test, fill out some preliminary paperwork, verify the building and schedule you want, your start date and that's it.
Not too bad pretty easy and straightforward, simple question surrounding handling and moving. Make sure you know basic safety rules as they will ask you, for example how do you carry heavy items.
Apply online, go to the on-site office for oral drug swab and ID picture. Start date is assigned once background check comes back. The actual start date will depend on how fast the check comes back but isn't normally delayed.
