J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (Gurgaon, Haryana)
Entretien
I was called for written test at Amazon. I was asked to write program for 3 problems. HR sent me a mail 1 day before the interview providing me the list of websites to prepare from. The list contained geeksforgeeks and glassdoor. I answered all the 3 questions best to my knowledge. Of course there were few silly mistakes as I do not have experience in writing programs on paper. After that I was told to leave for the day. Obviously I wasn't selected. I was wondering what could be better solution to those problems. I searched all 3 programs on google. To my surprise all the 3 of them were from geeksforgeeks. The solution provided by me matched to the most effiecient solution provided by the website. The only only reason that I feel for my rejection was silly mistakes, but my approach was definitely same as best solution on that website. May be other people have already prepared for those questions beforehand as HR gave tip to practice from that website and all the 3 question were from it. I never expected a company such as Amazon would just copy paste problems from some practice website and they would not even have their own questions to evaluate people.

Question 1
Given an array, print the Next Greater Element (NGE) for every element. The Next greater Element for an element x is the first greater element on the right side of x in array. Elements for which no greater element exist, consider next greater element as -1.
Recruiter screen, online assessment, technical interviews, and behavioral rounds focused heavily on Amazon Leadership Principles. The process was structured, with a strong emphasis on problem-solving, coding skills, and examples demonstrating impact and ownership.
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.

Question 1
Design a scalable URL shortening service and explain how you would handle high read traffic, collisions, database schema, expiration, and basic monitoring.
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.
