I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon in Jul 2010
Interview
I received an email form a HR from amazon about a software developer position available in seattle,WA. I agreed and HR setup a time for the interview. The interviewer called exactly at the agreed time. The interview questions included more of problem formulation with data structures and algorithms. The whole interview lasted for about 1 hour. After the interview the interviewer asked me if there is something i want to know about Amazon. I asked him some questions about the process of development they follow. On the whole the interviewer was very professional, calm and helpful in providing the details about the questions i asked.

It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
