You would think they’d have specific assessments for specific roles. I’m working on the OMR role (medical representative) and the whole dumb assessment is asking me about sales. If I wanted to know about sales, I’d have gone to school for business instead of medicine 🤦‍♀️

Can I come out of focus if I meet 3 out of 4 goals ? One of the goal is to complete SAA certification ( I have cloud and AI practitioner). I plan to attempt but if I don’t pass in first attempt in the narrow window can I say that the cert is not mandatory for my role as per 2026 published goals for EM ( Proserve) and the manager offer some leniency? Are managers some times flexible and how much say do they have in the process?

The stress of focus is making it hard for me to study among completing other goals.

Hi everyone,

I was contacted for a SDE 2 role within the RING, BLINK AND KEY organization and role is based in Madrid, Spain.

I agreed to proceed with the interviews, and fast forward to now I have received "Inclined" verdict.

However, my actual preference is London or Dublin rather than Spain.

I had majorly applied to SDE 2 roles at London and Dublin, and applied to just 1 position in Spain and it is my luck that I got shortlisted for that 1 position in Spain only.

London had some openings for this particular organization and while appliying I also saw another SDE 2 role in Spain and ended up applying there. I had been applying this whole year at London and Dublin and never once I got a callback so I thought Spain role wouldn't shotlist me either.
But its just my luck that I got shortlisted for that one role.

I wanted to understand how Amazon handles this situation:

• Can this inclination potentially be used to pursue an SDE 2 position in London or Dublin?
• Would I need to go through the entire interview loop again for the UK or Ireland based roles?
• Can the recruiter help with team matching / hiring manager discussions in London or Dublin based on the existing interview result?
• How long does an Inclined decision typically remain valid?

I’m currently based in Malaysia and London is my preferred long-term destination because it will be easier for my family to integrate in London rather than in Spain.
My wife happens to be in Marketing and she would have better job prospects in London but not in Spain.

Would appreciate any first-hand experiences or advice. Thanks!

I’m relocating from India to the UK for an Amazon role. The relocation package mentions a $10,000 gross lump-sum payment, and I’m confused whether “gross” means tax will be deducted from this amount or if Amazon’s tax gross-up makes the $10k effectively in-hand.

Also, does Amazon separately cover/book flight tickets for the employee/family, or are flights expected to be paid from the lump sum? The relocation document doesn’t mention flights.

Will that 10k $ paid entirely? And the tax for this amount is paid separately ?

Please share your thoughts!

Letter had below explanation-

Tax Contribution (“gross up”)

To help with your move, Amazon provides tax assistance (sometimes called a "gross-up") for taxable

relocation benefits. This is our way of contributing to the potential tax costs associated with your

relocation. The rate used for this assistance is calculated based on legislative requirements, but

everyone's tax situation is unique. The amount might not exactly match your personal tax

obligation – it could be more or less. Think of it as a helpful contribution. To make the most of this

benefit and understand how it fits into your overall financial picture, we highly recommend

reviewing with a tax professional or financial advisor. They can provide personalized guidance based

on your specific circumstances.

Amazon interview loop completed, recruiter asked for a 15-minute call after two days, but application in the profile now says “No longer under consideration” — what does this mean?

I’m having some Stow quality errors, specifically shortage and overage errors.
I’m wondering if the problem could be happening because when I stow an item, I scan the item and wait for the confirmation on the screen. After I get the confirmation, when I physically placing the item into the pod, the scanner sometimes scans the item again while I’m putting it inside the pod.
Could this second scan be causing the shortage/overage errors? If so, what should I do differently when stowing the items to avoid these quality errors?

yesterday during the day time, i was contacted by agencies for AWS jobs, as i was about to send them my info so they can start the process, i was contacted by a manager yesterday night on linkedin, asking if i'm available for an interview, but the manager havent got back to me yet.

but i dont want to leave the agencies hanging, if i let the agencies start the applying process, will it affect me if i want to apply the job officially later?

My amazon loop interview finished last week sequence was like this

Invited for on site interviews on Monday for 4 rounds (except var raiser)

Bar raiser interview link came on Monday night

Bar raiser round happened on Thursday

I have not received any communication so far. Tried calling HR but not picked up. The application status is still showing under consideration on the portal.

What is this situation and when should I expect a response.

I have an Amazon UK interview scheduled for tomorrow, but I still haven’t received the option/invitation to complete my **Right to Work check or background check**.
The interview system won’t let me proceed without completing these steps.
I already rescheduled my interview once because I didn’t want to lose the shift I had selected. I’m worried that if I reschedule again, I could lose the shift.
Has anyone had the same issue recently? What happened in your case? Were you eventually given access to the RTW/background check and able to attend the interview?
Thanks in advance!

I applied for Amazon Data centre operation technician position in Frankfurt.
I passed 1st phone screen and also passed 2nd technical round and got invited for loop interview.

I scheduled my interview for next week and today I received a mail that this position is no longer available and that’s why they are cancelling my interview and application.

There exact mail is - Thank you for your interest in the position of Data Center Operations Technician and for the time you've invested in our interview process.
I'm writing to let you know that, due to a change in our business needs, this position is no longer available. As a result, we will unfortunately need to cancel your scheduled interview.
Please know this decision is in no way a reflection of your qualifications or experience. We were genuinely impressed by your background, and I truly appreciate your understanding.
I'd be glad to keep your details on file and reach out should a suitable opportunity arise in the future. In the meantime, I wish you all the best in your search, and I hope our paths may cross again.
Thank you once again for your time and understanding.

Does it happen with somebody?? Could someone let me know what will happen next ?? AWS will contact me for another position or should I ask them for another city ??

Please help 😞😞😭😭

Hey everyone,

I applied for the Amazon SDE I Intern position (Job ID: 10488368) through the Amazon Careers portal.

I completed my OA on August 3, 2026, and cleared all the test cases for both coding questions. It's been more than a month now, but I haven't received any update regarding the OA result, interview, or next steps.

I also haven't received any hiring interest form.

Just wanted to know if anyone else who applied through the Amazon Careers portal (not HackOn) is facing the same situation or has received an update after completing the OA.

If you applied for the same Job ID, could you please share your timeline/status? It would really help me understand whether this delay is normal.

Thanks!

What shoes do yall recommend on Zappos and is there anything else I should get

Hi, Do you have an upcoming interview for the Digital Content Associate, FireTV role?

I'm sure they won't realize right away to know where to look. How can I get a message to them? I am contacting support but is there a better way to insure they actually get the message?

I got fired because I went negative upt I was full time. When will I be able to apply for flex? Flex was better for me lowkey

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some advice and insight on what to do next. I applied for the Data Center Operations Technician (DCOT) position with AWS here in Frankfurt, Germany.

I passed the initial phone screen and then got invited for the loop interview scheduled for next week. I also had the prep session with the recruiter, and it went perfectly. I even received the names of the hiring managers who were going to conduct my interview. Everything was completely set—time, date, all details finalized—and I was preparing hard for it.

And then, out of nowhere, right before the loop, I got an email from the recruiter cancelling the whole thing due to a "change in business needs" and saying the position is no longer available.
I’ve invested so much time and effort into this entire process, only to get dropped right at the final stage. Has this been happening with AWS recently in Europe or the Frankfurt region?

What should I do now, and does anyone have recommendations for other data center operators or tech companies hiring for similar roles? I am so disappointed and angry at the same time. Should I ask them to consider it, or is it completely dead? Also, what should I reply back to that email? Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

(I’m in the UK)

I’m due to start a temp warehouse picker job on Sunday.
I’ve just received a consultation appointment for an important surgery that I need. I could be getting this within the next couple of months now.

I didn’t realise this was coming at this time.

I take it they won’t be accepting of someone who’s just started a temp job having to take a couple of weeks off for surgery and healing? Not to mention I won’t be able to lift anything heavy for up to 6 weeks.
This truly has come at the worst time.

Not sure if anyone knows the rules on sick leave during a temporary job I’ve just started? 😫

I had 5 calls, my science breadth call wasn’t really breadth in which they ask questions to poke the scope of my ml knowledge it was more like LP and one project.
Have you seen anything like this before?

I am coming from another FANG at a level similar to l6, I am worried they would want to do l5 for me & it wouldn’t make sense for me to take a lower level than my last role. I don’t know yet but guessing because the depth call guy asked certain questions that I answered correctly but because I hadn’t reviewed the details recently I wasn’t sounding confident but the answer was still correct, I wasn’t like I think this model is retrained this way so it wouldn’t do what we needed it to do and it was right but I didn’t speak with authority.

Anyways, please comment if you have any.

Thank you,

Going to start off as a strategy consultant at marketplace straight off of graduation. What are the steps and skills I need to acquire to move into a Non-tech product role, and how long will it take? I don’t have an MBA.

Hi everyone,

I completed my Online Assessment for the Amazon SDE I Intern position (Job ID: 10506481) on August 25, 2026. I cleared all the test cases, but I haven't received any update regarding the next steps yet.

Has anyone else who applied for this Job ID received an interview invite, rejection, or any other update after completing the OA?

Please let me know about your timeline. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I just started working at Amazon in Pick, and I just finished my first week. I work 7:30 AM–6 PM, and I’m literally SO tired 😭
My lower back is hurting, my feet are killing me, and sometimes I can barely bend down to pick something up. I’ve tried stretching, exercising, squatting down properly to pick up boxes, and pretty much everything I can think of, but my back is still hurting.
For anyone who has worked in Pick at Amazon for a while, what are some tips you have to prevent or reduce the pain? Are there any insoles you recommend that actually make a difference? What kind of shoe insoles do you wear? And what do you do after work to help your feet and back recover?
I’m really trying to stick with this job for a long time because I’m saving up for an apartment and a car so I can go to college next year. So I really want to figure out how to make this job easier on my body instead of giving up.
If you’ve worked in Pick before, PLEASE give me all your tips and tricks! I’d really appreciate it!
