I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in May 2011
Interview
I had 2 phone screens, which were quite pleasant. In both they asked a few general programming knowledge questions, then a "write some code". The code was simple, atoi() function and tree ordering. Each phone screen was very laid back, took about an hour.
The physical interview was grueling. Not necessarily the questions, they were fairly standard programming questions, but the length of the interview. I was assigned to interview with 2 teams at once so I was there for 7.5 hours all totaled.

There was a question that was a Dutch National Flag problem. It is essentially about grouping colors, however he used integers, positive, negate, and zero to do the same thing.

Interview
Amazon's home assignment test involves receiving a coding or case study assignment, completing it independently within a specified deadline (usually a few days), and submitting it for team review. I got an answer after 2 days
Straightforward interview process with clear communication. The interviewers asked about my background, relevant experience, technical skills, and how I would handle common workplace situations. Overall, it felt professional and organized.
