I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Dec 2013
Interview
DevOps wasn't really the job I was looking for, but sounded interesting. There was an Initial 1 hour phone interview. Interviewer asked questions about dealing with difficult decisions in the workplace and general approaches to problem solving. Then we both got on a web site that shared a transcript document with accompanying transcript generated on the web. Several technical questions about structures, etc. were asked. Then I was asked to write a program that dealt (without going into the details) with a 2-dimensional matrix.
