Summary

I recently interviewed for the SDE 2 role at Amazon, which included behavioral questions on Leadership Principles and two hard-level DSA problems. Unfortunately, I was rejected as I could not complete both problems within the given time frame.

Full Experience

I recently interviewed for the SDE 2 role at Amazon. The structure of the interview was as follows:

First 25 minutes: Focused on Leadership Principles (behavioral questions).

Next 30 minutes: Focused on solving 2 Hard-level DSA problems.

The exact DSA questions were:

🔹 Basic Calculator (Leetcode - Hard)
🔹 Reconstruct Itinerary (Leetcode - Hard)

Unfortunately, I was unable to complete both problems with full implementation in the limited 30-minute time frame. Solving two hard problems under such time constraints is extremely challenging.

Outcome: Rejected
