I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Interview
They sent me an email two weeks before the phone interview and said in the email that it would be a technical interview. However, the phone interview turned out to be behavioral questions all about my previous project.

Question 1
Tell me a time when you used the wrong dataset to do data analysis.
The interview process was smooth and conversational. The interviewer was calmly asking questions about my previous work experiences and listened patiently. He even gave me ample time to frame my answers.

2. Asked few SQL questions
few rounds of interviews ranging between technical and conversational. Mostly in the form of " tell a story of time where ..." to show how you relate to amazon LPs
The first interview is a technical phone interview that assesses your skills in SQL and Python, specifically data analysis with python. The interviewer pastes the description of an SQL problem on the code editor and asks you to write your answer while describing your thought process. They give you hints when you're stuck.
