I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2018
Interview
You take an online questionnaire and play a 'game' that is basically a quiz designed to discern how well you would do performing basic warehouse tasks. Then they ask you how much you would like to work each week and give you warehouse and shift options. However, despite them showing me an assortment of warehouse and shift options when I selected them all but one faraway warehouse came up as unavailable.
Not too bad pretty easy and straightforward, simple question surrounding handling and moving. Make sure you know basic safety rules as they will ask you, for example how do you carry heavy items.
Apply online, go to the on-site office for oral drug swab and ID picture. Start date is assigned once background check comes back. The actual start date will depend on how fast the check comes back but isn't normally delayed.
Very simple and straight forward. Drug Test and Valid ID. Very few forms to to complete and a very short waiting time. The staff was very professional and efficient. Helped you with any questions or parts that you were unsure about.
