I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Amsterdam) in Jan 2021
Interview
Phone screen with recruiter, followed by a series of four interviews with various members of the team, and a 'bar raiser'. They booked them all in the span of a day, which was good on one hand, but took a lot of time and was tiring! However, a very interesting process to go through. I also had to submit a writing sample. Feedback was provided on all aspects of the interview which was very helpful. Candidate experience was top notch.

I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (London, England) in Jun 2021
Interview
Intense, lengthy, rather prescibed at times. Met some interesting people which gave a broad view of the company. Meetings were rearranged multiple times which became quite frustrating. Obsession over Amazon's Leadership Principles felt a bit unnatural.
