I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2015
Interview
Apply Online. I got a reply after a month. There were 2 rounds. Online Coding round and then phone interview. Coding round was pretty easy. There were 7 coding questions and each one of them had either syntax error or logical error.
The interview was basically a screening round, It was just a quick interview to get to know if I was worth the company's time. The dsa round was pretty easy but once they got into system design it was harder.
