I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2018
Interview
Quick phone call with the recruiter, then a one hour phone interview. If successful, then a half-day interview with multiple team members. The process was fast enough. I talked to 2 different recruiters before getting the official phone interview. The interviewer was really nice and made me feel really comfortable. They cannot tell you why you don't make it to the second round, which is a bummer.
