I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Jan 2019
Interview
Process started with 2 phone screen interviews with direct manager and similar level colleague. Then, I was called in for a full day interview with 5 members of the team. Received a very short negative answer by phone from HR a week later. General process was fair and team was lovely, but the whole process took one month and required a lot of preparation for little feedback ( 2mins conversation).
