Amazon Software Engineer I interview questions

I applied for the Amazon SDE Internship (Veterans program). The process consisted of multiple rounds: Technical Coding Round – Focused on data structures and algorithms. You’re expected to explain your thinking clearly while coding. Communication matters just as much as correctness. Behavioral / Leadership Principles Round – Heavy emphasis on STAR format answers. They go deep into ownership, dealing with ambiguity, failure, and conflict. Final Combo Round – Mixed technical + behavioral. This round felt like a bar-raiser evaluation. They assess not only problem-solving ability but also long-term growth potential, resilience, and clarity of thought.

I goe mail with home assigment, I had to complete it within one week. Two questions of leet code style, hard ones, and also some behaviour and work situation questions.
