I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Schertz, TX) in Sep 2014
Interview
The interview process was non existent. There was no process other than filling out an online application or showing up at an open call for applicants. Literally anyone with no drugs in their system or who could pass a background check were hired. Amputees, a deaf person and the very old were all hired. A drug screen and simple background check. For the amount of labor expected and the overall poor working conditions they were willing to accept anyone who walked in off the street.
No interview at all, you go into the hiring center, take your drug test, fill out some preliminary paperwork, verify the building and schedule you want, your start date and that's it.
Not too bad pretty easy and straightforward, simple question surrounding handling and moving. Make sure you know basic safety rules as they will ask you, for example how do you carry heavy items.
Apply online, go to the on-site office for oral drug swab and ID picture. Start date is assigned once background check comes back. The actual start date will depend on how fast the check comes back but isn't normally delayed.
