I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2011
Interview
I received two pretty tough technical interviews with two separate developers. About a week later I got notified I had a third interview with a Senior Manager. Another week later I got notified.
Overall the people were very nice and provided a few hints on the problems. They kept stressing on optimizing my solutions and determining what the time complexity was for each solution.

Interviewer never showed up for the interview. Came forward to the recruiter and recruiting team, was blamed for "not showing up" after providing evidence that I was there and declined an offer for a reschedule. After expressing my concerns, I was ignored and blacklisted.
Hackerrank round first and then two LC questions as the final round (BFS/DFS medium). Also had a behaviour component, testing the leadership principles and how my experiences aligned with them.
Expect one behavioral LP question followed by a leetcode medium or hard for two rounds. Be prepared to answer in depth on the behavioral questions and review LeetCode’s list of questions from Amazon.
