I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Amazon (Pilani) in Sep 2022
Interview
There were only 2 rounds. First One was an online round, with only 2 DSA (easy-medium) questions. The second round was a technical interview. He asked 2 questions. First was to update each node with the sum of the nodes greater than that node in a BST. Second questions was a hard question (given the time limit of 30 minutes and the pressure). The question is as follows
You are given a list of integers nums and an integer k. Consider an operation where you increment any one element once. Given that you can perform this at most k times, return the resulting value of the most frequently occurring number. If there's more than one solution, pick the smallest possible number.

The interview process was straightforward and friendly. It started with a recruiter screening, followed by a technical interview. The interviewer asked basic coding questions, object-oriented programming concepts, and a few behavioral questions based on Amazon Leadership Principles. The coding problems were not very difficult, and the interviewer was willing to provide hints when needed. Overall, the experience was positive and well organized.
i applied online around october, got the OA around march/april originally for summer but headcount was reached so i expressed interest in being considered for their fall internship. they reached out in late may and got my interview scheduled in june

Question 1
LP behavioral questions, questions about gen ai and how i incorporate them. lc4 and lc130
LC top 100 tagged — would recommend doing the top 100 and it is likely you will have question from there — the first 40 mins were behavioral lp, then the technical
