The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2014
Interview
A recruiter reached out about a role, had informational with the hiring manager. For the specific role it wasn't the right fit because of location but moved on to another interview.
Mainly discussions with their technical team and then one of their newly hired product managers because one of the product manager couldn't make it last minute. After 3 phone discussions heard back more than a week later they were looking at other candidates. Mostly standard questions for phone interviews on pricing models and how to figure out new services.

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.
