I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2011
Interview
Not much to say. Applied through college career board, then got a 1:1 interview scheduled on campus. If I had cleared this interview, there were 4-5 more scheduled during following days. But I didn't make it.
The interviewer did not look interested at all. Gave me a weird problem to solve, didn't provide much help and worked on his laptop while I was solving it. The problem related to distinguishing company employees from outside visitors when someone hits a website. Eventually it boiled down to IPs, strings, hash tables, etc.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)
Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.

It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
