Entrevista
The recruiter reached out to me for Front-End Engineer position for a team that was acquired by Amazon a few years ago. I had a quick phone screen with hiring manager. A few days later I had a technical phone interview. A technical interview was incredibly easy and I received an email a couple days later to schedule for on-site interview. Onsite interview was a full of frustration and disappointment. First, scheduler never sent me an email for virtual interview link and I didn't realize that onsite confirmation email didn't include the link until 15 minutes before the interview. So I basically missed first on-site interview. I was already so discouraged by this even before actual interview. After missed 45 minutes of first interview, hiring manager reached out to me and rescheduled a missed interview right after "last" onsite interview. Also all the coding challenges had nothing to do with algorithm and data structure questions from Leetcode where the recruiter strongly suggested me to study very hard on Leetcode. So I studied for weeks for nothing. The overall interview process seemed so messy and unorganized as if they were not part of Amazon and they conducted the interview the way they wanted. So I didn't feel that I was having an interview with Amazon, but a small startup company. There was nothing positive about this interview process. If you have an opportunity to have an interview for a team that was acquired by Amazon. PLEASE avoid the interview with them and apply for some other teams.

Entrevista
I interviewed for the Front End Engineer I role at Amazon and received an offer.
The process started with an online assessment consisting of two DSA questions and one React debugging/fixing task. I was able to complete all the questions.
The first interview focused on a graph-based DSA problem, follow-up questions, resume discussion, and Amazon Leadership Principles. I initially mentioned that I was not very comfortable with graph problems, but I worked through the solution by discussing my approach and recalling DFS/BFS concepts. The round went reasonably well.
The second round was with a senior front-end engineer and was heavily focused on front-end development. We discussed Next.js, my previous projects, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and AI-assisted development. There was also a machine coding exercise where I built components similar to Amazon product cards. This was my strongest round.
The final round was with the Hiring Manager. We briefly discussed my resume and then spent most of the interview on behavioral and Leadership Principle questions. The conversation was engaging, and I also had the opportunity to ask several questions about the team and role.
Overall, the interview process was challenging but fair. My advice is to prepare DSA fundamentals, be ready to discuss every project on your resume in depth, and spend significant time preparing Leadership Principle stories.
