I think it was very easy for me. It took about 1 hour on phone call. Mostly I was asked behavior questions. At the end of the interview I got 3-4 technical questions about. They were quite easy I think. Interviewer was very nice, spoke clean, friendly.

Entrevista
I was contacted by an Amazon recruiter about this position
He was a very nice guy, very respectful and you can feel from speaking to him that he wanted you to succeed
He asked me a couple of questions regarding my past experience that was of interest to him and after chatting for a while, he was interested in going forward with the process to get me a technical interview few days later
He told me what to expect and what subjects to review so I can be better prepared to answer the technical questions
For the technical interview, the interviewer was also a very nice guy, very knowledgeable and respectful
He talks very well, he explain slowly he was very calm trying to make me at ease and he makes sure that you understand the question
Overall, I enjoyed the experience even though I was not qualified to continue the interview process and judging from the recruiter and the technical interviewer, it's true that Amazon not only hires the best but also very nice people

The interview process was similar to what you can read here on glassdoor. However, what I want to add is that your background and experience has NOTHING to do with what you will be tested for. The questions are a mixture of academic (mostly not useful) or extreme use-case that you will hardly ever have (and probably never did in the past). I myself asked the interviewer if "the example" ever happened to him and he shily said no and in another case "just once", than changed subject. They won't ask almost nothing regarding your past experience on the technical side. About the Leadership principles, what I want to say is that they are similar to what you may find online but be careful because you are "penalized" for reusing the same examples between interviewers. So try to use different example as much as possible. In general the whole interview was a bad experience and the worse one I had until now in my career.
