I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
good enough, was very easy to go with, questions asked were difficult for me. but went through it never went to this A+ grade comapany internship new to me , all the best to me for next selection rounds if i get selected
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Amazon (Kanpur Nagar) in Jan 2022
Interview
It was multiple rounds and very hectic. Had to do 3 technical interviews and 1 HR round and most of the questions in the technical round were around DSA, Data Structure and Algo's. Preliminary coding skills in Java were also tested and was asked to do some dry runs of the questions being asked. Trick is to prepare well and be confident to bag the job.
