I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2011
Interview
Starts with a phone screening, if they like you - or if you "raise the bar", as they say, you will be called in for on-site interviews, where you will meet with 4-5 different interviewers (one at a time). Questions are behavioral-based and will assess how your responses align with their core leadership principals. If you are interviewing for a technical role, you will be asked technical questions as well.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2015
Interview
Took 2 months. I was contacted through the email, and given an electronic interview several days later. After I took the video interview, I informed the recruiter. Three days later I was contacted via email stating that wanted to pursue other candidates. Despite not getting an offer, the overall process was straight forward, and I would apply again.
