I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Columbia, SC) in Jul 2011
Interview
First there was a phone interview with the recruiter. Then, since they were opening a new plant, they put on a mass interview session at one of the convention centers. The interview consisted of 3 separate interviews. The first two were with a two member panel each and the last one was with a single person. The single person portion was talking him through a math flow problem that you had to solve. Onc e you solved it he then asked you some "what if" questions based on your response.

Question 1
Although not unexpected I found the question regarding past mistakes difficult because you have to measure your answer based on what you think they will expect.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Stamford, CT)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional in my opinion. Talked to 3 different people, all of whom were wearing old sweatshirts and not looking at the camera. As I was sitting on zoom in a suit jacket, did not feel at all a place I would be valued at.

Question 1
Conflict between coworkers, how would you approach resolving?
All virtual. STAR interview questions (situation task action result). Think of examples of tough situations you had to deal with. I think I had 2 or 3 interviews before I got an offer. Pretty smooth process overall.
or an Amazon Level 4 (L4) Area Manager phone interview, you will face 2 to 3 main behavioral questions, alongside a highly possible operational math screening question. Because L4 is typically an entry-level management role (often targeted at recent college graduates or individuals with early-stage leadership experience), the focus shifts heavily toward potential, basic problem-solving, and your ability to lead groups of people
