The Active Looper Kit: Prep by the Real Numbers

You just got a screening call from Amazon, Flipkart, or Google. You have 10-21 days. You don't know if you should spend it on Leetcode, SQL, or system design.

Most candidates prep generically and hope. That's how you burn two weeks on DSA hard mode and get hit with a 60%-SQL loop. This kit replaces the guessing with the actual weighting, and then with an honest read on your own skill gaps against it.

What's inside:

1. 50-Company SQL & DSA Prep Allocation Cheat Sheet. The real prep weighting across 50 companies, SQL, DSA, system design, ML basics, behavioral, by percentage, plus a "what NOT to prep" sidebar for each company cluster.

2. Amazon India DE Loop Deep Dive. A full breakdown of Amazon's specific DE loop structure, round-by-round, so you're not walking in blind to the highest-volume loop in Indian tech hiring.

3. Prep Allocation Audit Tool. An interviewer-grade self-audit, score your own SQL, DSA, system design, ML basics, and behavioral readiness, then cross it against your target company's weighting to get your true personal priority, not just the company's.

Who this is for:

• DE/DS/MLE currently holding a screening call or loop invite
• 3-6 YOE, any background, services or product
• Have 10-21 days and need to know exactly where to spend them

Who it's not for:

• You're not yet in active loops, that's the Market Clarity Kit or the Transition Kit
• You want actual SQL/DSA question banks, this is allocation and diagnosis, point to LeetCode/StrataScratch for content
• You're prepping for a Staff+ level loop specifically, different scope

Why this, not Glassdoor: the allocation percentages come from debrief-room feedback, not aggregated candidate anecdotes. "SQL was weak, pass" and "system design wasn't at level" are real verdicts this kit is built from, not guesses.
