      Average interview

      I interviewed at Amazon (Bengaluru)

      Interview

      In my 5th semester, Amazon visited our campus to hire interns for multiple roles, and I was shortlisted for the Data Engineer role. I cleared the online assessment and attended two technical interviews. The first round focused on coding, while the second round focused on SQL. I faced some challenges in the SQL round, and although I was not selected, the experience helped me identify areas for improvement, especially in advanced SQL concepts
