I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Rome) in Jul 2017
Interview
I was contacted via Linkedin by a recruiter and then did a phone interview with an interviewer from Seattle.
The experience has been positive, the interviewer was really nice and the interview seemed a sort of brain storming.
I am still waiting for an answer.

Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
Interviewed with 1 phone screen, 1 coding, 2 ml design and 2 lp rounds. Most questions were non-leetcode questions more related to day to day ml implementations. The questions were very practical.
