During Amazon's virtual onsite for the SDE intern role, I was asked a coding question involving prefix search. Given a list of words and a prefix, I had to return all matching words.

Interviewer was friendly and liked the structured approach.
Was part of the women programme spring insight. Started off with an initial cv screen, then moved onto a hackerrank oa, and then we moved onto an in person workshop with an interview at the end
