I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Waterloo, ON) in Oct 2012
Interview
The interview process was done through JobMine (Internship - I'm from Waterloo). The two "stages" were 45-minute technical interviews with two current developers on the team. Most of the code is on paper, but in some cases algorithm analysis and runtime analysis (big-O, specifically) is considered in your solutions. Be prepared for many questions on data structures and their implementations.
In the coding problems, they ideally want you to work in Java or C/C++. I did stuff in Scheme, which they did not appreciate.

In a collection of strings, output the string that occurs most often.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
Um teste de código online, se aprovado, vai para o loop. O loop é 4 entrevistas seguidas, duas em inglês e duas em português. 3 entrevistas técnicas de código, todas as 4 têm pergunta de liderança.
