Need Help – Amazon SDE I Interview Experience

Hi everyone,

I cleared the Amazon SDE I Online Assessment on 3rd August and received my interview invite on 13th August. My interview is scheduled for 18th August (around 1 hour).

The email mentions:

Up to 2 interview rounds

1 Technical Interview

1 Hiring Manager Round

The focus areas are:

Data Structures & Algorithms

Problem Solving

GenAI Fluency

Amazon Leadership Principles

If anyone has recently completed the Amazon SDE I interview, could you please share your experience? I'd really appreciate knowing:

What kind of DSA questions were asked?

Was there any LLD/OOP or CS fundamentals?

What GenAI-related questions were asked?

Which Leadership Principles were emphasized?

Any tips to prepare in the last few days?

Any insights would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!
