I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Amazon (New Delhi) in Aug 2014
Interview
The Test will have 20 mcqs focussing mainly on DS around 10 ques and c/cpp around 5-6 ques and aptitude 5 ques.
We have to do atleast 13 to 15 ques in this section depending on the competition
Apart from this there were 2 coding ques. They were easy and straight forward implementation questions.
There were 2 interview rounds focussing mainly on DataStructures- Array, linked lists and trees.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
1. Given a binary tree having 3 pointers, left, right and sibling out of which all the left and the right child pointers are already filled, you need to fill the sibling pointers with the addresses of the next node on the same level. If it is the last node of a level, fill NULL.
Given an array of size 2n+1 where n integers repeat two times and one integer occured only once, Find that integer. I told him by using XOR. then he changed the question to
Given an array of size 2n+2 where n integers repeat 2 times and 2 integers come only once. Find both of them.
Given any binary tree in which all the leaves had their left and right pointers connected in a doubly linked list from left to right instead of pointing to NULL. Also, the leftmost leaf’s left pointer pointed to that node itself and the rightmost leaf’s right pointer pointed to that leaf itself and if there was an internal node with no left or right child, that particular pointer will point to that node itself.
4. He asked me about the data structures I knew and then started asking questions on Graphs. How we represent them?
which is better Adjacency matrix or List?
It began with an online coding assessment, followed by a quick recruiter check. The final round consisted of two 45-minute technical and behavioral interviews where they tested my problem-solving skills and alignment with Amazon’s Leadership Principles.

Question 1
Q: Tell me about a time when you had a disagreement with a team member on a university or work project. How did you resolve it?
It was fine but nothing special. Typical questions for an intern applying for an internship program. You wouldn't be surprised. Come with good questions. That always helps. Worst case scenario you don't get it.
Very good and it was easy to understand and the interview was very good and all answers are expected in star method its a method to answer to your questions
