I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (Roman) in July 2020

Question 1
Http protocol, rest services, server side and crosside validation, code to calculate the lower ancestor in a binary tree
The process was standard for a front-end role. It began with an initial recruiter screening followed by a technical phone interview focused on JavaScript fundamentals. Afterward, there was a virtual onsite consisting of three rounds: a live coding challenge (DSA), a specialized React/system design round, and a final behavioral culture-fit discussion with the engineering manager.

Question 1
Can you explain the difference between the Task (Macrotask) Queue and the Microtask Queue in the JavaScript Event Loop? Specifically, how does the browser prioritize Promise resolutions over scheduled callbacks from a setTimeout function, and what impact does this have on UI rendering performance?
First part was general questions about my past work, the projects I’ve done, and my overall experience.
The second part was a 30-minute technical assessment done through a link they provided.

The interview process was an initial online assessment, a phone interview, and then a super round interview, with 3 interviews in one day. The problems weren't the most complicated, but the superround was challenging because the interviews are back to back.
