I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Allahabad) in Nov 2020
Interview
Interviewer was friendly and helped me through out, questions were mostly on data structures and algorithms And discussion about the projects ive mentioned in my resume. most focus in on thinking about the problem rather final solution. The questions based upon trees were mostly asked so be through with it. we need to vocal of our thinking too . The approach matters more than the final solution , interviewer will help even if you get struck,so dont be worried about it.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Find the next permutation of the series of numbers given.
Surprisingly easy — I expected tougher questions, but the coding round felt more like a warm-up. The main challenge was a DSA problem about counting islands in a 2D grid, which led to a discussion on DFS versus BFS and handling large grids. Funny enough, I had revisited that exact type of question while prepping on PracHub, which made me feel more confident. The interview wrapped up with a behavioral round, and I accepted an offer, but ultimately decided to decline it for another opportunity. Overall, it was a smooth experience.

Question 1
Number of Islands — given a 2D grid of '1's (land) and '0's (water), count the number of connected islands. Walk through DFS vs BFS, and discuss how to avoid revisiting cells (in-place mutation vs visited set) and what changes if the grid is huge and must stream from disk.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
Um teste de código online, se aprovado, vai para o loop. O loop é 4 entrevistas seguidas, duas em inglês e duas em português. 3 entrevistas técnicas de código, todas as 4 têm pergunta de liderança.
