What was the difficulty level of the interview? (1- very easy, 10-very difficult)
8/10
Tell us about the written/online test. (Aptitude, Coding, Test Platform, etc)
20 mcq questions and 2 coding questions were asked on hackerearth. Mcq were for 2 marks each and coding for 5 or 10 don’t exactly remember. Many people who had done both coding didn’t get shortlisted so focus on mcq equally. Don’t try to improve complexity in this round since it doesn’t matter what matters is passing the test cases set by the company. If you use c++ for coding do learn STL it will help tremendously.
Describe your all Technical Interviews specifying number of rounds and details of each round (if any).
There were 4 technical round of interview, each tougher than the previous one. You are supposed to think loud. Speak and discuss with the interviewer every approach you try and why it is failing in details. Be honest if you don’t know just say and if you know a question they asked just tell them already because they will realise it later and that is a big negative. Depending upon the interviewer he may ask you to write either pseudo code or a working program on paper and if he is bored or anything he will try to compile what you have written so practise writing without any error. Even if you can’t solve a question but the interviewer likes your approach and way of approaching the question you will get in. The last interview will be with a bar raiser he is someone who is specially appointed by Amazon to grind you and ask very challenging questions be it theory or coding and will try to confuse you by saying that you are wrong and not listening to you at all and playing mind games with you to see if you break or are adamant to what you are said. Solving questions is not as important as discussing your approach. I could not solve any questions the BR gave me.
