I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2014
Interview
Submitted resume on university career fair. Attended on-campus interview. Two rounds with two engineers. They are both very nice and willing to discussion with you about the question. One small flaw was that I told them I had a pending offer and would like to get feedback in two days, but they didn't tell me the result until a week later. Great experience anyway!
