Few recommendations, - Be ready for typical behavioural questions. Preparation beforehand is a must. - LC easy-medium questions. - Be ready to answer questions related to your past/ongoing projects. Sometimes, the interviewer can go deep into the technical details of the project. - Explore Amazon research beforehand and figure out where your research work fits best and if possible mention this in the interview. - Last but not least, prepare a few questions you would like to ask the interviewer in the end (there will be dedicated time for that) Overall, it's a great experience and you get to learn a lot. Best of luck!
