Hello everyone,
I recently gave the Amazon OA and wanted to share my experience.
OA Structure:
DSA Question (Graph-based)
Difficulty: Medium–Hard
I was able to pass 8/15 test cases
Problem was not a direct LeetCode pattern, required some custom logic/modeling
Spring Boot API Debugging Question
Fix bugs in an existing API codebase
I fixed 5 out of 6 bugs
This round included AI assistance, which helped in understanding the code structure and hints for debugging
Work Style / Leadership Assessment
Standard Amazon behavioral questions (LP-based scenarios)
Overall Observations:
DSA question was not standard LC, required deeper thinking
Debugging round was very practical, focused on real backend skills
Time management was important, especially for the first question
Any idea how Amazon evaluates combined performance across these sections?
