Amazon NG VO contains 3 rounds back-to-back, each round lasting 1 hour. There was a 30 minute break between the second and third rounds.
First round of BQ + coding, the second round of pure coding, the third round of pure BQ.
Amazon VO BQ Question:
1. Tell me about a time you failed / The biggest mistake you made. (Ownership)
2. Tell me about a time when you had to work on a project with unclear responsibilities.(Bias for Action)
3. Tell me about a time when you gave a simple solution to a complex problem.(Invent and Deep Dive)
4. Understand complex problems and solve them with a simple solution.
5. Make an easier implementation for customers.

Q1: LRU Cache. The key is implementing a LinkedHashMap. The underlying data structure consists of a hash table plus a doubly linked list.
Q2: Design a custom data structure to evaluate expressions of the form (2*(3+4*(1+2))). You need to account for a memory allocator to ensure safety, map operation tokens to data-structure methods, and manage object lifecycles by providing a free method to avoid memory leaks.
Q3: A simple hash‐table and frequency‐matching problem—a basic LeetCode question. My first thought was a brute‐force approach, but that leads to O(n2)O(n^2)O(n2) time complexity, which is too slow for large arrays and likely to be challenged by aninterviewer. Building a hash table to track frequencies optimizes the solution.
Q4: “Clone Graph,” a standard LeetCode problem. You need to handle each node’s value and its neighborrelationships while avoiding revisiting the same node. Use a hash table to map original nodes to their clones, preventing duplicates. You can traversethe graph with either DFS or BFS.
