I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2024
Interview
1 OA, then one 3 round interview. OA was hard but you did not need 100% to advance and multiple people i knew passed without passing all test cases. Final round was 1 LLD, 1 behavioral and one leetcode round with 2 med-hard questions.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you were already halfway through a project when you realized something was wrong and had to redo/ go in a different direction.
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Sydney)
Interview
I can't comment much. I submitted an application for the software engineer position, and not even a minute later, I received an auto rejection email from Amazon (never received an online assessment).
2 behavioral 2 coding not very difficult. Behavioral is tell me about a time you took responsibility beyond your role and biggest accomplishment. The process is exactly the guideline they posted for interview.

It was a 2-3 round process, depending on how your interview went, with increasingly hard DSA questions followed by some HR and behavioural questions. First round was mostly easy and medium leetcode, followed by medium and hard questions in the second round and above on more complex topics.
