I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Ciudad de Mexico) in Aug 2017
Interview
Great interview process. Focus on leadership principles and STAR. Case studies are a common norm. They look at understanding your skills rather than focusing on your experience. Do research on the loop, key to success.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Situational questions on past experiences and deep diving further to gauge your ability to articulate
The interview was largely centered around Amazon’s Leadership Principles, which guided almost every question throughout the session. Rather than focusing on technical skills, the interviewer dug deeply into how I think, take ownership, solve problems, and collaborate with others in ambiguous or high-pressure situations.
I had four rounds of interviews, each 45 minutes. The interviews consisted of behavioural questions. Each interviewer focused on different Amazon principles, so make sure you know those. Use the STAR method to answer the behavioural questions.

Tell me about a time you used customer feedback to change the way you worked
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Online Assessment then 4 round loop interview. Spend a solid week preparing your STAR stories because that's the bulk of the interview. Also don't bs your stories either because they will ask follow up questions.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where I used expertise to help a customer with their problem, what was the problem, and what strategies did I use to identify the customers problem?
