I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2009
Interview
The interviewer was very professional, My first phone interview went well. The interview was quite patient and encouraged my thought process and I could answer the questions. I was asked questions based on data structures. Second interview was similar, the interviewer asked me many non-technical questions like why Amazon, projects I have done and technical stuff like OOP concepts, two design problems. Interviewers are very helpful, they want to know more about how you try to tackle the problem, and do you catch the hints they give you.

Interview
Amazon's home assignment test involves receiving a coding or case study assignment, completing it independently within a specified deadline (usually a few days), and submitting it for team review. I got an answer after 2 days
Had a screening from recruiter, then a follow up phone interview.
Had been asked to take an assessment and I flunked it.
I had hard time managing the time in 45 min window.
Straightforward interview process with clear communication. The interviewers asked about my background, relevant experience, technical skills, and how I would handle common workplace situations. Overall, it felt professional and organized.
