After completing the online assessment (OA), I was scheduled for the interview loop about a month in advance.
Round 1: Data Structures & Algorithms — question was similar to Course Schedule on LeetCode.
Round 2: System Design / Implementation — implemented LRU Cache.
Round 3: Behavioral — standard questions about past projects, teamwork, conflict resolution, and motivation.

Question 1
“Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a teammate. How did you handle it?”
Interview includes 2 coding rounds, 1 system design round, and STAR-based behavioral questions. Focus on DSA, especially graphs and trees. Also prepare Gmail filtering, timestamp-based filtering, and related implementation concepts.

I attended an SDE 1 interview at Amazon. The interviewer focused on data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving. I explained my approach clearly, optimized my solution, answered behavioral questions, and gained valuable interview experience.
Asked for intro, then 2 dsa question and 1 question on lp. Explain your thought process and start with brute force dry run it explain its tc and sc and theb jump on to optimised solution
