The interview process at Amazon was structured and challenging.

It started with an online assessment focused on data structures and algorithms.

This was followed by two technical interviews that covered problem-solving, system design, and behavioral questions rooted in Amazon’s Leadership Principles.

Communication and clarity were key.

The process was intense but fair, and the interviewers were professional throughout.

One standout question was: "Design a scalable URL shortening service like bit.ly." They wanted me to discuss trade-offs, database choices, hashing strategies, and how I would handle high traffic.
