SDE 1 (US) interview experience - Amazon

Gave SDE1 Interview for Fungible role (US) on 8th Sep
OA Date - Sometime in June

Round 1 - Asked 2 LP's, then LRU Cache
My opinion - Went Excellent - Was able to answer everything

Round 2 - Asked 2 Coding Questions
Some tweak in BFS Shortest Path - Very similar to https://leetcode.com/problems/number-of-connected-components-in-an-undirected-graph/description/

Some tweak in https://leetcode.com/problems/random-pick-with-weight/description/

Was able to solve 1st but give pseudocode for 2nd as time was less

Round 3 - Asked 4 LP's
Was able to answer everything (I think this round went well)

Verdict - Rejected :(
It's sad but they have raised the bar with the backlog of candidates they have.
