Regarding Company:
Great minds surrounded. Good network can be established. You can get inspired a lot from people around you.

My Preparation:
*Little exposure to competitive coding and GFG.

You must prepare well in Algo and DS kind of problems. Spend most of your time into it. Though if you are not excellent programmer and you are not highly rated competitive coder in your batch, you can crack it by preparing well. Keep your mind free and calm. Don't think that you can't clear because person X,Y are competing with me [X,Y are great programmers]. You have hardly two months. Don't look into any one else. Prepare,prepare,prepare. Preparing for Amazon can land you in other product companies too though if you don't clear Amazon.
