The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2011
Interview
I had applied online and received an email scheduling my first phone interview within a week. The interviewer was very helpful and kind. As said in the email, the interview was based on data structures and algorithm complexity.
He asked me to write a program based on arrays and binary tree.
1) Write a program to find the largest sum of two consecutive integers in an array?
2)How to find the height of binary tree?
3)Why amazon?
I cleared the first one and my second phone screen is in next week.
My advice is to revise data structures, algorithm complexity and be honest if you dont know any answer. You can give some information closest to the given question.
Be confident :)

Interview
The interview process consisted of an online assessment followed by two technical interview rounds and one behavioral round. The technical rounds focused on Data Structures, Algorithms, Java, and problem-solving skills. The behavioral round covered Amazon Leadership Principles and past project experiences. The interviewers were professional and the process was well structured.

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Tel Aviv-Yafo)
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.
