I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon in Sep 2021
Interview
I got a call from recruiter and she shared me an assessment link to complete the test on HackerRank.
There were four questions. Two questions were based on Data Structure and Algorithm based and two were theoretical based where I have to tell the approach and time complexity about the given two problems respectively.
After clearing my assessment with positive result, they rejected me in resume(just not finding out the keywords).
Why did they send me assessment link though?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Dublin, Dublin) in Jun 2021
Interview
Started with an online test.
Had 2 phone interviews afterwards. Mostly trees and dynamic programming problems and a mix of questions bordering on the leadership principles.
Final interview was smooth. 5 interviews in all, 2 coding, 2 behavioral, 1 bar raiser interview.
There was a lot of focus on the Amazon leadership principles in the final round

I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
4 hour interview virtual, 1 hour break in middle
1 hour with manager, 3 hours with engineers
Manager sounded like he did not want to be there, no greeting, no introduction, just straight to the question
Engineers were more friendly.
This was not even for a role that I applied to.
