Recruiter screen, followed by an online coding assessment and then a technical phone interview. The final round was a virtual onsite loop with multiple interviews covering data structures, system design, debugging, and Amazon Leadership Principles. The technical questions were practical but time-constrained, and the behavioural questions required specific examples using the STAR format.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design a scalable URL shortening service and explain how you would handle high read traffic, collisions, database schema, expiration, and basic monitoring.
There were 5 rounds 2 leetcode , 2 frontend and 1 system designThe interview process at Amazon was rigorous and comprehensive, spanning five rounds. It kicked off with two Leetcode rounds focused on data structures and algorithms. These rounds tested problem-solving skills and the ability to optimize solutions under time constraints. Following that, there were two frontend rounds where I was asked to build and optimize UI components, implement responsive design, and demonstrate proficiency in modern frontend frameworks. Finally, the process concluded with a system design round. This round involved designing a scalable system, discussing trade-offs, and addressing potential bottlenecks. Overall, the interview process was challenging but rewardin

Question 1
Desing search feature for an E-commerce application
How do you traverse from one URL to another
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.

Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
