Workload for interns is okay. Some interns came in at 10 am and left at 4 pm.
You will have access to play around with the codebase Amazon has. It's a good opportunity to learn how the code was written in a big company like Amazon.
People at Amazon are smart and kind.
Frugal is one of the principles that the company advocates, and it follows the principle very well. There is no free food; you have to pay even for soft drinks and snacks. Only free stuff is cheap coffee and tea. The allocated desktop is outdated, and you don't want to do anything on it.
Personnel management is loose: I was not assigned any work until week 3. I was surprised that Amazon is rich enough to hire an employee who does nothing for such a long time.
Sometimes it requires collaboration with other teams, but it's very difficult.
Interns get little attention, and it's difficult to get help if you get stuck.
Pay more attention to interns.
OA -> phone (tech) -> 3x tech VO -> offer Some behavioral questions asked in the tech, basic LP related questions. OA was personality/behavioral related, and VO was mainly leetcode, nothing from tagged.
OA: 2 technical questions, virtual job tryout. Interview: 3 rounds: * 1 behavioral (STAR questions) * 1 technical (2 LC-style questions, easy to medium difficulty) * 1 OOP round (design class and function)
I completed an online coding exam that lasted an hour. Following that, I undertook a Work Simulation and Workstyles Assessment. This assessment was quite different, primarily consisting of replying to emails.
