[pure forum]

grats dude

[hoary rivet]

LC were tagged from amazon?

[iron aspen]

I can now enjoy the college life i never had for the remaining 1 month

[pure forum]

i just did my final round td, fingers crossed

how long it take for you to get decision

[hoary rivet]

What kinda ques did you get?

[pure forum]

mine was 1/2lp +lc then 3lp round

[iron aspen]

Im not sure. LLD was tagged: https://leetcode.com/problems/design-add-and-search-words-data-structure/

LC i dont think so. 1st LC is given a sorted array, find the repeated elements (binary search for optimal)
2nd lc was design a shipment algorithm for an array of wegihts. They have to be contigous packages (0,1,2..) nieghboring elements and not (0,3,6) for example

[hoary rivet]

Do they ask the common LP questions like Conflict, failure etc?

[iron aspen]

yup

just all the 16

[hoary rivet]

So is having like 10 stories enough?

[pure forum]

mine was outa responsibility, earn trust, tight ddl, learn and be curious, and dive deep

yeah i had about ten

[hoary rivet]

Cool thanks

[iron terrace]

what was the timeline ?

[iron aspen]

imo just have 2 major stories

that answers all

and then tweak the details to focus on the specific LP they asked while touching the rest

[iron aspen]

jan 21- OA
March 26- survey
April 7th & 8 VO
April 15: offer

[agile fable]

what's your start date?

[copper plaza]

For the LLD, Did you use Trie?

[iron aspen]

i used set and bruteforced 26^k combinations. Explained my decisions, essentially building a trie on search

[little totem]

Do you repeat your stories for every LP

There is a shit ton of LPs so not sure how to make that many stories

Or do you end up answering multiple and they ask you less

also any recommended lld prep resource ^^

[mortal shell]

even for the ML position, was it through the Fungible pipeline?

[warped horizon]

@iron aspen dm’d if you have time

[iron aspen]

nope always come up with more. If they ask a LP question that was already covered by your story, most likely they're trying to ask you to test a better score on that LP, so come up with another story

[iron aspen]

not sure tbh, i got both fungible and ai/ml emails. only ai/ml moved forward for my OA

[iron aspen]

I did not receive a dm!

[twin mica]

2nd question is capacity of package leetcode question

so basically u got tagged

congrats! happy for iu

[digital umbra]

is there a list of just tagged LLD questions somewhere or its all just part of amazon tagged

[iron aspen]

ah it was a variant then. Mine was find max contigous segments

[twin mica]

do u think u got everything 100% correct?

how did u study for LP

?

[iron aspen]

all zon tagged sir

[iron aspen]

nope. Theyre looking for thought process. If you can convince the person on a suboptimal solution you should be good to go

[digital umbra]

o7 understandable

[iron aspen]

i prepared 2 stories and had gpt4o rp as an asshole bar raiser to grill me to find holes

[digital umbra]

yeah im a little worried about LPs

how indepth were your prepared stories if you dont mind me asking

[iron aspen]

very in depth

[digital umbra]

i see i see

congrats :)

[little totem]

Is this top 100 tagged

[twin mica]

idk but many people got asked this question

its popular for amazon tho

[digital umbra]

capacity of package?

[signal flare]

Did they ask any AI/ML related questions?

[iron aspen]

no but i made effort to touch on my AI/ML experiences during introducions and behavioral

[warped horizon]

Just sent

[little totem]

wait but you said you only prepped 2 stories ?

what i meant was 2-3 stories and just take unique blocks out the stories to represent all the LPs

[clever verge]

How many tagged qs did you do and were these in last 30 days? top 100?

[thorny remnant]

Are you intl

[formal gorge]

Did they not ask any systems stuff? OS, DS, or other System Design shenanigans

Also congrats!

[simple quarry]

[iron aspen]

[iron aspen]
