The interview was over the phone with a person from a finance department. In order to prepare for the interview I reviewed the comments on Glassdoor (three types of questions: behavioral, technical, company-specific), looked at the annual report, company news, read a book "One Click" and analysed the job description.
The interviewer was asking questions for 20-25 minutes, I used remaining 20 minutes to ask about the job and the division.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Amazon

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Mar 2017
Interview
Overall, the interview process was very well-mannered from start to finish. I was really impressed.
A recruiter reached out to me directly, and I had my first round phone interview with the hiring manager. Consisted of both situational questions and a case at the end. Not difficult but ensure you detail every angle in the case (specificity matters).
Was brought onsite for the final interview consisting of 6 people and a lunch. Had 2 case studies and then some more situational questions. Simialr to above, make sure you detail your thought process and assumptions.
The people were really nice, and the interview itself wasn't too difficult.
