      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amazon (Chennai) in Aug 2011

      Interview

      there was a initial group activity round where everyone was given two questions and asked to give solution to the respective mentor. the questions were 1.in an array of integers find the largest sum that can be obtained by adding consecutive elements of the array 2.find the in-order successor of a node in a BST

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      In a library there are N books with the number of pages in ith book given by b_i.These books are to be distributed among K students such that the difference between the largest sum of pages in the books assigned to any student and the smallest sum of number of pages in the books assigned to any student is minimum for the given input. Also the books are arranged in a certain order and this order must never be changed. For example: suppose B[] contains the number of pages in each book. Then for N=6 K=3 B={3,7,8,2,6,4}, the output will be 0 as we can give book 1 and 2 to student 1 and book 3 and 4 to student 2 and the remaining to student 3. That makes 10 pages for student 1 10 for 2 and 10 for 3 and thus the difference is 0 similarly when B={3,6,8,2,6,4} then the minimum difference will be 1 .
