I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Jul 2016
Interview
First a hacker rank problem, then an on-site interview with different engineers. The on-site, was 4 problems. Two coding problems, One OOD and One System Design. The interviewers were polite. I recommend practicing as many exercises you can and the leadership principles. For every leadership principle try to match a personal story that focus on that principle. There are 14 leadership principles, you can find them online. Good Luck.
