Tip 1: Focus on Trees.
Tip 2: Revise popular LLD questions (such as the Hotel Booking System, etc.).
Tip 3: The 14 Leadership Principles of Amazon are a must for every round of the Amazon interview.
Tip 1: Include projects on your résumé that highlight measurable results. For example, “Designed and developed an application handling over 500,000 users monthly” or “Increased system performance by 20%.”
Tip 2: Clearly mention the tech stack and tools used in your projects.
Coding Challenge - 90 minutes, two coding problems.
Work Simulation -15 minutes, work through software development decisions faced by SDEs at Amazon.
Work Style Surveys - 10 minutes 2 surveys

Step 1: Loop through all possible positions to split S into two non-empty substrings: left = S[:i] and right = S[i:], for i ranging from 1 to len(S) - 1.
Step 2: For each split, check both substrings.
Step 3: Count the frequency of characters in each substring.
Step 4: Count how many characters have an odd frequency.
Step 5: If the number of odd-frequency characters is ≤ 2, the substring can be rearranged into a palindrome after removing at most one character.
Step 6: If both substrings meet this condition for any split, return "Yes".
Step 7: If no such split exists, return "No".

Step 1: Understand the Operation
Remove one element charge[i].
If i > 0 and i < n - 1, merge charge[i-1] and charge[i+1] into a new system with a charge of charge[i-1] + charge[i+1].
If i == 0 or i == n - 1, no merging takes place; simply remove the element.
After removal and any necessary merging, recalculate the total charge.
Step 2: Initialize the Result Variable
Let max_total_charge = -inf (or any sufficiently small number).
Step 3: Iterate Over Each Index i of the Array
For every index i in charge, simulate the result of removing the system at that index:
Case 1: i == 0 (first element)
new_array = charge[1:]
total = sum(new_array)
Case 2: i == n - 1 (last element)
new_array = charge[:-1]
total = sum(new_array)
Case 3: 0 < i < n - 1 (middle element)
Merge charge[i-1] + charge[i+1]
new_array = charge[0:i-1] + [charge[i-1] + charge[i+1]] + charge[i+2:]
total = sum(new_array)
After calculating the total charge for each removal, update max_total_charge if the value is higher.
Step 4: Return the Result
Timing: 11 AM – 12 PM
This was a virtual problem-solving round held on Amazon Chime. It began with introductions, followed by a question on Amazon Leadership Principles, then a coding question on trees, and finally another question on Amazon Leadership Principles.

Used BFS.
Mode: Virtual
One LLD question and two Amazon Leadership Principles were discussed.
Create the Low-Level Design of a Stack Overflow system.
Tip 1: Watch videos of frequently asked LLD questions on YouTube.
Tip 2: Read Alex Xu’s materials/books.
Tip 3: Apply OOP concepts when creating classes while solving LLD problems.
