I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2009
Interview
Some basic information was requested to be filled out online. Then a series of in person interviews took place on the day of the interview from a varied set of peers both in the same discipline as the position as well as those outside the field. Most were situational white-board code questions regarding solving various problems that seemed mostly germane to the job.
