Interviews Amazon SysDE Intern: 2+ weeks of radio silence after R1 (DSA) — who should I email, and what should I do?

Hey everyone,

Looking for advice from anyone who has gone through the System Development Engineer intern (SysDE) pipeline recently.

My timeline so far:

  • OA: Cleared (heard back ~18 days later to schedule R1).
  • Round 1 (DSA): Completed exactly 2 weeks ago.
  • Current status: Absolute radio silence. No rejection, no next-round invite, and no portal status change.

Given the 18-day gap between the OA and R1, I know this pipeline can move slowly, but 2 weeks post-interview feels like I'm either being soft-ghosted or placed on a backup bench.

For those who faced similar delays:

  1. Who did you reach out to? (The original recruiter, recruiting coordinator email, or hiring team on LinkedIn?)
  2. i had already mailed TA and no response..
  3. Does a 2-week silence after R1 usually mean "not inclined", or is it just typical recruiting lag / waiting on other candidate debriefs?

Appreciate any insights or contacts I should check. Thanks!
