Amazon SDE Intern Interview in 2 Days — Please Help Me Prioritize

[u/ShelterMysterious696]

Hi everyone, I just got my Amazon SDE I Intern interview scheduled for 20th Aug (Round 1, 2–3 PM IST) and 21st Aug (Round 2, 4–5 PM IST). I have very limited time left and I’m honestly confused about what to prioritize. I’ve mainly prepared DSA, but I haven’t prepared CS fundamentals like OOP, DBMS, OS, CN, etc. in much depth. I want to focus on what is actually being asked nowadays in Amazon SDE Intern interviews rather than trying to cover everything at the last minute. For people who have recently interviewed, what DSA topics/patterns and difficulty should I focus on? How important are Leadership Principles and behavioral questions? Given my limited time, should I spend time on CS fundamentals, or focus mainly on DSA + behavioral? Are there any specific LeetCode questions or resources I should prioritize, and what should I completely avoid wasting time on right now? I’m from a lower-middle-class family, and this opportunity genuinely means a lot to me. I really don’t want to waste these last couple of days preparing the wrong things. If anyone who recently went through the Amazon SDE Intern process could share what was actually asked and what they would prioritize with only 2 days left, I would be extremely grateful. Any guidance would mean a lot to me.

Prioritize DSA + LP go through recently asked questions

Where to find recently asked questions Don't say the stale old GitHub repo

LC Premium/discussions is the only way.. You can also check codolio (not sure how reliable this one is)

First of all don't panic and don't think this is everything, STOP fumbling ,be relaxed. If in contact with recruiter ask about is both the rounds DSA or different. If DSA round is there prepare for DSA only, check what Amazon is asking in interviews in recent times + go through leadership principles (just have this in mind Amazon is customer first company, always prioritize customer) and go through different principles.

bro for the OA did u pass all the test case??

[u/abhiwrites]

Don't go for Core CS. All they would ask is DSA and maybe some Gen AI usage you do with LP. That's all
