“ I got offers from Amazon and Ebay. InterviewBit was pretty much my only resource for data structures and algorithms. Two months of timed interview questions and you get used to being under pressure. Editorial answers help you improve your coding style. The questions are organized logically, so that once you have finished it, you can be sure you have covered all necessary topics. Cracking tech interviews became cake walk after solving questions on InterviewBit. ”

“ InterviewBit provided a platform for writing code without IDE, within time limit and with multiple hints; which helped me to prepare for and stay confident in interview. It covers all the topics and subtopics of Data Structures and Algorithms with famous problems asked in interviews, in a particular order which ensures that one doesn't skip any prerequisite for next topic. InterviewBit was one of the most useful resources I used, and would recommend to anyone preparing for interview or willing to improve programming skills. Really looking forward for other topics such as Databases, Operating Systems to be included. ”

What to expect at Amazon Interview?

Amazon's Interview Process

  1. 2-4 Coding interviews which focus on basic problem solving and data structures. The less experienced you are, the more the number of coding rounds for you.
  2. 1 Design interview which involve coming up with high level design architectures for real life products as well as OOPS based design of components. This round might be scrapped for you if you are interviewing for an entry level software engineering role.
  3. 1 Hiring manager round which tests for cultural fit based on attitude and previous work experience. In depth knowledge of previous tech used is paramount here.
  4. An optional bar raiser round which is a combination of all of the above. The idea is here to judge if you are technically better than an average person in a particular Amazon team.

Where to Prepare

  1. Coding rounds: Material in the programming section of InterviewBit is pretty comprehensive. For your reference, the section below has some of the questions which are frequently asked in Amazon's Interview. Make sure to try and solve most of them.
  2. Design rounds: InterviewBit System Design prep has you covered here. Make sure to go through some frequently asked interview problems listed on the page.
  3. Cultural fit rounds: In most cases, this should not be an issue. However, go through Cultural Fit Interview Guidelines to make sure you don't make common mistakes.
