The first two rounds were screening rounds.
After clearing the first two rounds, they said I had reached the final stage of the interview. This again consisted of four interviews.
All the next four interviews followed the same pattern: First half: managerial questions. Second half: technical questions. I will not be detailing the managerial questions. I will only write about the main interview questions.
First interview: They asked to design a post office or delivery system for Amazon. This was a high-level design question.
Second interview: They asked to design a system to open a file given a directory, with the possibility of multiple directories within. This was a low-level design focused question.
Third interview: This was more about an algorithm-based question to find the closest movie from a given release date.
Game was given: We had to determine whether the game was winnable or not. The game was similar to a frog jump, where the jump limit was according to the dice rolled and the number written over the array. This was algorithm focused.
