did u get offer today?

[icy spear]

Got offer today (took me 7 working days)

Answering common dm questions here -

1. I would say LLD/OOD + LPs + LCs is what everyone should focus on (which is standard anyways).
2. Dont be worried about getting stuck, ask for help. Amazon is relatively lenient as long as you match their values and have decent knowledge.
3. For LPs, follow STAR method and include enough details (without getting vague)

Other than that the process ain't too bad. Good luck to everyone in the process!

[icy spear]

not really, I didnt prep much. I think communication is key.

[icy spear]

needed an hint in one of the LCs

[icy spear]

interview 1 - LP + OOD (ood was tricky, but I was able to talk about my approach & code up classes and stuff).
interview 2 - LC (1st one went perfect, 2nd lc I needed a hint for the most optimal soln)
interview 3 - LPs (went really well)

Overall, I think I needed a couple of hints. But Amazon seems to be a bit more forgiving than others

[willow onyx]

How did you call out for Hints? Like, did you directly tell the interviewer that you were stuck at some point and asked if they could give some hint? Or was it more like the interviewer themselves offered hints when they felt like you were stuck?

[foggy sandal]

Thank you and congratulations again.

How did your OA go?

[icy spear]

Just say out your initials thought and then you can ask if you are missing anything. I dont ask for hint directly, but with explaining your current thought process the interviewer will know where you are stuck. Then unless your interviewer is very bad, they would give some hints.

[icy spear]

idts they say at multiple places that the offer details are final

[icy spear]
