Interview questions [1]
Question 1
for the first part, it was pretty straightforward, a code was given and instead of adding the correct thing, it added something else to answer so just needed to fix small things like that.
In the second part, I got 2 questions and the first one is finding pairs of closed parenthesis, so if ()() this was given then return 2 if there are unclosed ones return -1.
The second question is to find the largest square when a matrix of 0and 1 are given.
Had one virtual interview with an engineer. Prior to that, there was a online assessment with a leadership assessment (behavioral). Process was smooth. Heard back within reasonable time (1-2 weeks).

Question 1
valid brackets on leetcode and we dove a bit deeper
First there was an online assesment and two rounds of tech interview where each round had 2 dsa problems which were lc medium and some behavioral questions and project related question.
The interview process was straightforward and friendly. It started with a recruiter screening, followed by a technical interview. The interviewer asked basic coding questions, object-oriented programming concepts, and a few behavioral questions based on Amazon Leadership Principles. The coding problems were not very difficult, and the interviewer was willing to provide hints when needed. Overall, the experience was positive and well organized.
