I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2020
Interview
Multiple interviews that suck up a lot of time. If you get to the final step it is a 7 hour "loop" with about 6 different interviewers asking different technical problem solving questions and culture fit questions. After all that, if they decide not to move forward you get no feedback. They just drop you with a short "game over" email. Then a day or two later they want you to give them another 30 minutes to answer a questionnaire about their interview process.

Interview
Initial interview is always a coding problem. Either live or most of the times virtual. Once it's complete you'll have a technical panel interview. The technical interview focuses on persons skills on system design and previous work

Interview
Generally a full day of whiteboard interviews. All had a strange undertone in which the interviewers continually 'neg' you in an attempt to... get a rise out of you? Make you feel like you're lucky to be there? It was very strange. Maybe this works on college grads.
