I applied through university. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
I was given a 20 minute online quiz. "What are the mistakes in the following code snippets?" One problem had a min/max problem, another problem had a sorting mistake, and another problem dynamically allocated memory incorrectly; however, your job was to find the mistake and fix it in a timely manner.

Question 1
Q: Given the following code snippet, where is the error (min/max; incorrect dynamic memory allocation; incorrect recursive call to count items in a list; etc.)
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.

Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
First round with hr screening - 2 leetcode questions then hr manager screening then the loop which consists of 4 interviews each an hour long. The 4 interview questions they asked where three medium leetcode questions. And one system design interview question about how to shadow deploy a test software to millions of users.
