First PowerPoint presentation then they divided applicants into different groups.
Then group discussion based on group no. Then interviews. Technical round then HR round. For some candidates they took 2 rounds of interviews.
Wanted to give people a heads up about how the recruiters work at Lab126. I was approached by an Amazon recruiter - would I consider a manager job there. Sure. Got a half hour interview with a recruiter at Lab 126. She was kind of a jerk. She told me there was no way I could get a director job there. I was unaware I was interviewing for a director job, and she said no - but there's no way you could get a director job (my last job was a director position). It was a bit of snark and I understood the level I was interviewing for before the call. Then she asks me questions, I answer, then she says she wants more details. And I say, what would you like to know more about? And she repeats - well, you interviewed 3 years ago for a job and they said you didn't have enough details and that's what I'm seeing now. And I say again - I'd be glad to give more detail. What would you like to know more about? And - no questions. She changes the subject. At one point in the interview she does the quiet game. She paused and it was dead air on the phone for 2 minutes. I am certain it was about seeing what I'd do, as I've heard Amazon does this. She said...oh, I'm sorry. After waiting for her to continue in dead air, then saying "hello?" a few times, I almost hung up. What a jerk. People ought to know what a person employed by Amazon does to interviewees.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon Lab126
Interview
After 2 level phone screening, a 7/8 people half a day process in a face2face setup.Very good in logistics arrangement.
Seems like 1/2 person is core to decision making although 7/8 people can interview and submit reports.
If you can convince the main guy u got the job.
