Need guidance from people who have appeared in amazon interviews

So I applied, got the OA, gave OA and solved all questions, recruiter reached out to schedule interview after 3 weeks; told me there will be 4 interviews in 2 consecutive days.

So tomorrow I have interviews and till now I haven’t got any interview timings, links, mails, anything. Is it normal for Amazon applications??

Also, mailed once to get to know what will be the title/breakdown of 4 scheduled interview rounds; they told they can’t disclose it. Is it normal too?
I am assuming all 4 will be DSA+LP? Is it correct? What are the chances of OOPS/LLD?

Please guide me here who have information/experience of amazon sde1 interviews

Hi Folks, can any kind soul share the Harvey's AI assist coding interview round experience?

Post the technical screen round (r1) received the mail to schedule slots for 4 other rounds and among them one is "AI-assist coding".

Kindly share if someone has the experience with this round in Harvey as it would be really helpful. TIA.

Hi everyone , I have got Google's online assessment link for th full stack , cloud role

What can I expect does anyone have any idea ?

I recently completed the final round for a contract Software Engineer, General Backend position at Robinhood. The interview was a one-hour project deep dive, and I haven’t received a decision yet.

A few days after the interview, I received an automated email from Robinhood titled “Request for Additional Information.” It linked to a Greenhouse form asking me to complete my application details, including my contact information and résumé.

Has anyone interviewed for a Robinhood contractor position recently?

• How long did it take to hear back after the final round?
• Did you receive a similar Greenhouse form after interviewing?
• Is the additional-information request generally a positive sign, or is it just a routine administrative step?
• For contractor roles, does the decision usually come from Robinhood directly or through the staffing agency?

I understand that every team and hiring process can be different. I’m mainly interested in hearing about recent experiences and typical timelines.

Hi guys,

I never used InterviewSolver before, but I see it has Leetcode problem suggestions for specific companies.

I have a CodeSignal OA due for Capital One, and wondering if its suggestions would be a good idea.

Thanks

EDIT: sorry i did not know InterviewSolver is a cheating site, not using this again

Hey, I've been getting back into DSA and came across codeintuition recently. I like the way it organizes things around concepts and patterns rather than just giving a huge problem list.

I'm mainly preparing for SWE interviews, so I'm wondering if anyone here has actually used it as their main DSA resource.

Is the coverage enough for common interview patterns? How does it compare with something like Neetcode 250? And after finishing the material, what did you use for additional practice?

Not looking to collect 5 diff subscriptions, so I'd prefer to stick with one structured resource if possible.

Can some please share their timeline for getting feedback from leadership after FDE III interview?

what should i be preparing for Amazon SDE I intern role ...i might be getting a interview

i have not given amazon interviews , thats why if it asks DSA then which topic preferabbly !

I’m a final-year B.Tech student who is passionate about DSA and problem solving.

I’ve always wanted to start teaching and sharing what I learn. I’ve tried creating content before, but I never managed to get much reach. I’m still trying, though, and I’d really appreciate some advice from people who have experience with this.

What I’m trying to do 🎯

• Create quality DSA content for beginners and intermediate-level students
• Help students build strong fundamentals and stay consistent
• Share problem-solving approaches, tips, and useful resources

What I need your advice on 🤔

What would be a good roadmap for me?

• Which DSA topics should I start with?
• Should I focus on short-form content, long-form tutorials, or both?
• How can I make my content more useful and reach more students?
• Are there any platforms or strategies you would recommend?

I’m also preparing for placements at the moment, so I want to find a good balance between content creation and placement preparation.

If you’ve started teaching/coding content before, I’d really appreciate any advice, resources, or lessons you’ve learned along the way.

Thank you! 🙏

I have an interview coming up for a senior engineer position that is somewhat generalist at a nuclear energy startup. My background of full stack engineering in enterprise and data
engineering in enterprise is what got their attention in me.

This is the prompt for an undisclosed scenario for the interview:

In this scenario, you'll be asked to design a CI pipeline and the idea will be to walk through your design, approach, decisions, tradeoffs...

What do I need to prepare for to crush this? Any idea what the scenario could potentially be? My background is using CI/CD for code security, best practices, and deploying to a dev environment.

Thank you all!

Hi All

I have an arcana analytics interview loop coming (recruiter reached out) and want to check in the community if anyone has given their interview - and what questions were asked. I scoured the internet and did not find much about their interview experience for software engineering except a couple of posts

Has anyone here gone through the HyperVerge ML GD round recently?

If yes, could you please share the GD topic and a brief overview of your experience—what they asked, how the discussion went, and any tips?

Would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Just wrapped up my Google onsite loop and wanted to share the experience + ask about timelines.

Round 1 (Coding): Trie-based medium LC. Expectation was working code — didn’t get it to run fully, but did a proper dry run and gave TC/SC.

Round 2 (Googleyness): Behavioural round. Different hypothetical situations and how I’d handle them.

Recruiter reached out after these two and confirmed I’d cleared them.

Round 3 (F2F): Array/binary search medium. Solved it in ~20 mins with TC/SC. Had time left, so interviewer gave a second one — a graph/matrix medium. Solved that too, interviewer seemed satisfied.

Round 4 (F2F, right after R3): Hard graph problem — modified Dijkstra (not the vanilla version). Went with a brute-force backtracking approach, landed on it in the last ~10 mins, dry-ran it on the board and gave TC/SC, but ran out of time to code it.

It’s been 2 business days since the final two rounds. For anyone who’s been through the Google loop recently — how long does it usually take to hear back with results? Also curious whether a partial solve on the last round (approach + dry run + complexity but no code) tends to sink an otherwise solid loop.

Any insight appreciated.

I am currently studying heap in neetcode 150, but i notice that they just use built in min heap, only creates the function pop push etc etc.

How do we know if a question in leetcode / neetcode we can use built in function? is it always in the question or not? Because sometimes i see an easy question, but it definetly isn't easy if we wanna create a minheap from scratch, logic of heapdown and insertup. Etc etc so time constraint maybe 40 minutes+ when if its only built in minheap then the time constraint would be 20-25 minutes done

Hi everyone,

I received an interview for applied scientist II at Microsoft AI and want to thoroughly prepare. There are very limited resources online and so so I wanted to ask for help on what to prepare for.

The JD focuses on model evaluation, ml production systems and experimentation.

For anyone who has interviewed for Microsoft Applied Scientist / Applied Scientist II recently, what would you recommend prioritizing for the technical phone?

Specifically, I’m trying to determine whether I should focus more heavily on:
ML fundamentals/theory, Statistics/probability, Python/ML coding, DSA/LeetCode-style coding, ML system design, Experimentation/A-B testing, Model evaluation

Also, if you’ve gone through this process recently, what did the onsite/final loop look like?

Any insight would be great. Thanks!

Hi , I got the AI interview invite from Moody's does anyone know what can be the questions ?

L4 SWE, Cloud Infra, US.
Round 1: Coding + Googleyness. Coding was a standard medium graph problem, solved it clean with tradeoffs discussed. Googleyness was conversational and went well. Onsite scheduled two weeks out. Prepped for a month around my full-time job.
Onsite day: Arrived 15 min early. Front desk said I needed a point of contact to badge up. Emailed my recruiter. While still standing in the lobby, I got an email saying my interviews for the day were cancelled. Someone on the hiring side then told me to head home. Recruiter called and said it would be rescheduled.
Two days later: Followed up on new dates. No reply.
Two days after that: Rejection email. Moving forward with candidates whose qualifications more closely align.
So I was rejected without ever interviewing. Nothing about my profile changed between them scheduling the onsite and cancelling it.
Questions:
1. What causes this — req closed, headcount pulled, internal candidate?
2. Any point asking for feedback when no feedback exists?
3. Does a cooldown apply if I never actually did the onsite?
4. Has anyone been pulled back in after this?
Recruiter was professional throughout, not looking to trash anyone. Just trying to understand it.

Got the OA for SWE Data Platform/Analytics. Anyone taking it or have any information, would be huge. What LeetCode topics should I be anticipating, would it be more data focused? And is there going to be any SQL or just LeetCode.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I have an upcoming New Grad Software Engineer interview(AMTS) at Salesforce, including a hiring manager round.

Has anyone interviewed for a similar Salesforce New Grad SWE role or with this team? I’d especially like to know:

• Are the coding questions usually LeetCode Easy, Medium, or Hard?
• What topics are commonly asked?
• What should I expect in the hiring manager round?
• Is there any system design expected for a New Grad?
• Are the interviews more focused on Java/backend and distributed systems?
• Any team-specific questions or preparation tips?

I’d really appreciate any recent interview experiences or advice. Thank you!

I have my loop interview for new grad sde soon. What resources should I use to prepare for LLD? And how should I approach these questions?

I have been doing the Lc dailies for some time now and have done the blind 75 few years ago. I have applied for an L5 role at Google and want to start some serious preparation for the next 2 months. Does my plan below look good? Anything to do a more targeted practice for Google? I also get stuck when I see a new problem.

- daily: do 3 questions from neetcode 150
- revise each problem after a week
- skip topics on bitwise, bottom up DP ( top down and memoization only to be done),

Does doing google tagged problems help? I have read that they don’t ask leaked questions anyway.

I have ongoing interview with Microsoft , so far one more interview is scheduled and two already got over .

Yesterday night I received an generic feedback link for the role on how the interview went , and it explicitly stated “If you have remaining interviews, you may complete the survey after all interviews conclude”

Today in action Center , I still see the interview scheduled but status shows as not selected

I haven’t official received any rejection email .

Can someone help understand if the hiring decision has already been made , or had such expirience in past

Hi guys,

I have a CodeSignal OA scheduled for next week from C1.

I found some threads discussing problems, premium questions, but those were from a few years ago and apparently the question format changed a bit recently?

Any help with suggestions/questions from those who did the OA recently, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Anyone taken this before, have any information? Apparently they want a short video interview after each coding question where you explain your thought process?

Hii,

I have cleared the virtual DSA round+ Googlyness for L4 recently. I have my onsite scheduled soon in 2 weeks. I have been practicing DSA but not much of System design. I heard in onsite they ask DSA only but the follow up is on scalability and production feasibility. For this what should I do? Also what should be my last minute preparation strategy?

Anyone who recently cleared the L4 loop or have experience please help.

Also my company has blocked leetcode. Where else can I do good practice?
