The first round was according round in that two questions who asked. Both were leetcode medium questions. After that another online assessment was there which evaluates your leadership principle skills .
Then comes the interviews there are a total of three interviews the first one focuses on DSA plus leadership principles .The second round follows the same pattern .
The third round is a Bar Raiser round that focuses heavily on leadership principles . On top of that, any coding question might be asked in this round as well.

Question 1
Leadership principle questions play key roll in Amazon interviews they are very interested in how you proceed with this questions so you should get prepared for these very well.
After completing the online assessment (OA), I was scheduled for the interview loop about a month in advance.
Round 1: Data Structures & Algorithms — question was similar to Course Schedule on LeetCode.
Round 2: System Design / Implementation — implemented LRU Cache.
Round 3: Behavioral — standard questions about past projects, teamwork, conflict resolution, and motivation.

Question 1
“Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a teammate. How did you handle it?”
3 rounds in total - 1. Technical, 2. LLD + Behavioral , 3. Behavioral.
Technical is easy and can be done if you are well prepared with leetcode, I felt the behavioral is harder than I thought. I would recommend focusing more on the behavioral and the LLD part of the interview as important as coding.
