I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon in Sep 2010
Interview
They picked my resume from monster.com. I got a mail to schedule a phone interview and they asked me to apply for software development position on their website.
The interview was purely technical. The interviewer asked mostly data structures and algorithms questions; binary search tree, linked lists, complexities of some known algorithms etc. There was one coding question. The interviewer asked to explain how I would go about solving the problem and then gave 1 hour to code and mail it.
