I applied through other source. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Melbourne)
Interview
fun, exciting and well delivered, complex problems and required good understanding of leadership principles. Everyone was really accommodating and really nice. The process was much easier as a result of their engagement and personal approach.

What is the route path of these nodes if using route reflector?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2019
Interview
one phone call for an hr asking questions about BGP and tcp/ip, he gave you the option to choose which topics to be asked in and i went for BGP instead of OSPF, it was quit difficult, got the feedback in 4 days ,
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in Mar 2020
Interview
The first step was a recruiter reaching out for a phone interview. The phone interview is pretty short (30-40 minutes) and covers some general conversation as well as a few technical questions. These questions were simple (which can actually add to the difficulty as we can forget the simple things).
The next step is a phone interview that will be about an hour long and will be much heavier on the technical side. You might also get behavioral questions (Google STAR interview questions).
If that goes well you will have more phone interviews. These will probably cover different topics but there could be some overlap. These questions are tricky and they're designed to really test your underlying knowledge of networking. They actually provide you with a paper that tells about the job and even tells you what topics you will be questioned on. In my opinion, they give you everything you need to succeed. There also a helpful book on passing the interview process and well as some helpful YouTube videos on the same topic.
The final step is "The Loop" interview. This is virtual right now because of COVID. You'll interview with several people over the course of a day. This one is tough because the questions themselves are difficult and because hours of interviewing will wear you down. Overall it was still very enjoyable. I can't say much about this last step as you have to sign an NDA.
The whole process took about 7 weeks. I enjoyed the entire process. The people you will talk to are great and they do a great job of creating conversation and easing tension.
