Colloquio
Interview Questions:
Tell me about yourself.
Tell me about a time you took the initiative.
Interview Experience:
The interviewer started by introducing himself, then asked me to introduce myself. After that, he moved on to behavioral questions, focusing on Amazon’s Leadership Principles. One of the main questions was:
"Tell me about a time you took the initiative."
For this, I shared a story where I identified a gap in my university’s student group project coordination. I took the initiative to set up a shared Kanban board using Trello and organized weekly stand-ups to ensure everyone was aligned. This improved communication and helped us finish ahead of schedule.

Domande di colloquio [6]
Domanda 1
The first question was standard Longest Common Subsequence, interviewers expected me to first explain the brute force solution and then move on to the optimal approach.
"Tell me a time when you worked on a problem which was difficult for you".
"How do you use GenAI in your day to day work?"
"Tell me about a project where you've used GenAI"
Given an array, you can do a merge operation where you merge (or sum) two adjacent equal numbers, remove both the numbers, and replace with the new merged number. For example, [3 1 1] becomes [3 2]. Now you can operate infinite number of times, and you need to return the smallest final array after doing all the possible operations optimally, e.g. for [1 1 1 1] the answer will be [4] and not [1 2 1].
