I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Phoenix, AZ) in Jan 2020
Interview
Asked a lot of odd problem solving questions like: if you were a manager at a fast food restaurant and the ice cream machine is always broken on XYZ'z shift, what do you do. After general interviews they had a math interview where you white board your answers to a problem in front of a panel.

Interview
