I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
Hiring manager contacted me via email after she found my resume posted on their website. After exchanging many emails, she directed me to another hiring manager who worked with me to schedule the telephone interviews. Finished first round of phone interview. Have another scheduled for next week.
The interviewer was very nice, she went over my resume and asked questions on my previous projects and current projects. Asked me choose one of my favorite projects from past and asked questions based on the technologies and the working experience on that.
After that asked algorithmic questions.

It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
