I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Penn Pitt, PA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Phone interview from employee referral. The whole interview took about an hour. First ask me a behavior question, listed below. Then asked four technique questions, not all of them are algorithm questions. I answered the first two questions correctly but didn't make the third. Then let me ask them some questions about Amazon.
