I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2011
Interview
6 people, 6 hours, each asking a different set of questions, they were all smart, some of them were about business experience, lots to determine how quickly I could think about things, what I'd been responsible for, how much I understood the industry I was going to go into. It was smart and everyone was well prepped. I didnt' know what to expect, but it made sense once i worked there and was interviewing others

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (São Paulo, )
Interview
O processo é super fluído e rápido. Inicia-se com um phone screen para entendimento de adequação cultural e requisitos básicos da role. Após isso passa para um loop com 4 ou 5 entrevistadores onde no geral se pedem cases ligados ao principios da Amazon. Após essa fase já existe um comitê decidindo pela offer ou não.
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.
