I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Barcelona) in Sep 2019
Interview
I applied online for the job, then I got 2 telephone interviews which both were similar, with behavioural and technical questions. After I passed both interviews I got in-person interview with 4 people in Amazon's FC. Actually 2 of them were in-person, 2 of them were online via laptop. 3 of the interviews were completely about behavioural questions, and the last one was q mix between behavioural and techincal questions.
All those 6 previous interviews were about 45 minutes long. The 4x45 in-person should be the last step, but after few days they wanted me to get an extra interview by phone. This was shorter, about 20min and focused mainly on team-working questions.
After 3 long weeks waiting the final answer, they rejected me.
