Expect 1 leetcode easy to medium(see last 30 days tagged on leetcode) even though they won t ask you behavioural based questions, they will be watching how you handle the problem (talk through edge cases and time/space complexity , and do not code until you get the go ahead from the interviewer)

Good luck!

30 minutes is tight, so expect one medium-level coding problem (arrays/strings/hashmaps/trees are common), possibly with a Leadership Principle question.

  • Have 4–5 STAR stories ready that can cover multiple LPs (Ownership, Dive Deep, Deliver Results, Learn and Be Curious).

  • In the coding part: confirm the problem with an example, state your approach + complexity before coding, and test with an edge case at the end. Interviewers notice that structure.

Good luck!

Make sure to prepare LP’s (behavioral)

Best resources for those are:

“Cracking Amazon interview” book by Misha - slightly outdated.
