I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
The first contact took place during career fair at my MBA school. Since then I contacted a few alumni working with the company. First interview took place over a telephone with a manager who has been working with the company for 10+ years. I was then invited to an on-site interview loop with four other managers and the HR manager. The interview loop included a simple Excel test.

Question 1
There was really no unexpected question. Be sure to know the leadership principles which can be found on the Amazon website, as well all the latest news about the company. They won't ask you about the news, but you may proactively - without being too pushy - throw it into the interview. Adding to that: ask questions about the company, but not the basic ones!
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.
