I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Apr 2008
Interview
My interview was 4 years ago. Things have changed since then however, mine consisted of a 3 person interview panel. It consisted of the Site General Manager, the Learning Manager and an HR Rep. They provided a math question which essentially was related to creating a staffing plan scenario based on circumstances they provided. There were questions that they sent to me earlier to answer and discuss during the interview that were extremely simplistic to answer and then other questions specific to my background and experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I strugged with the math question due to the way that the details were provided and didn't expect them to want me to provide the math on a white board.
Star Method and Leadership Principles. Just study these from the materials they give you, and form a story for each principle, and when they ask questions, you can see which principle they are asking about.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you faced a conflict or disagreement at work and how did you handle it?"
Multiple online tests after application, followed by a virtual interview with various staff. Staff did not want to be on camera and did not have many good things to say about working there.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
