I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru) in Dec 2015
Interview
6 Rounds of Interview mainly concentrating on situations faced by candidate in professional life based on Amazon's Leadership Principles. The entire process was conducted on the same day and offer was extended. It is advisable that candidates prepare examples based on the Amazon leadership principles firsthand.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Tell me a situation when you had to get to the root cause of a issue, What steps did you take, how did you arrive at the solution ?
Tell me about a decision for which data and analysis weren’t sufficient to provide the right course and you had to rely on your judgment and instincts. Give me two to three examples. They don’t have to be big strategic decisions – could be big or small
Give me an example of a calculated risk that you have taken where speed was critical. What was the situation and how did you handle it? What steps did you take to mitigate the risk? What was the outcome?
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.
