I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (San Bernardino, CA) in Sep 2020
Interview
Recruiter contacts you for a phone interview
Phone interviewer was the Site lead
It was 15-20 minutes in length. Individual seemed distracted and rushed
the questions I was asked:
-Tell me about the biggest risk you took that failed
-Tell me about a time you hired someone you thought would be successful and wasn't
-Tell me about a time you challenged a process that was working
Overall, I found the phone interview to be odd. I don't feel like the questions asked allowed for a good representation of my successes or what I have done but hopefully me sharing what was asked can help someone better prepare for these questions as I was more prepared for some of the others on this site.
Will update if I receive information about moving to the next round of interviews.

Assessment, written assessment, four interviews. It was a simple but lengthy process. You will interview with four different individuals, not a panel. So be prepared for a few hours spending 30-40 minutes each. Even if you nail one two or three, if one interview doesn’t go as smooth it can cause you to not get an offer.

Question 1
Three part questions, and what did you learn? Even if your example was spot on with the situation task action and result they still want you to provide an explanation of what you would do differently. Be prepared for this question after examples for every interviewer. They want details and exact data and numbers.
