I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Bloomington, IN) in Feb 2016
Interview
First round was a debugging test that consisted of 7 questions. Next round was final round-was a phone interview. Asked me about my projects, how I dealt with issues in projects, etc. Then they asked basic technical questions on linkedlists, trees and hashing and then a problem on Graphs.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tasks depend on one another. You have to find whether there exists a task A such that it depends on a task B but B depends on A too. What data structure will you use ? How will you proceed with the solution?

Interview
One online assessment and one virtual interview included a coding round and leadership principle questions; overall, the process was fairly straightforward and not overly challenging for me throughout the experience.
2 rounds:
1st round: 3 behaviorals: Tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you used Gen AI, tell me about a time you faced a problem in one of your experiences
Leetcode similar to LRU Cache but a variant
2nd round: 3 more behaviorals; tell me about yourself, a specific experience in my internship, a time you disagreed with manager/peer on a project

Interview
Pretty difficult OA didn't need to get full score. One round technical interview with SDE. Interview was pretty easy, most people I knew at school and friends ended up passing the interview. Took about 1 month to hear back after interview
