In the normal world probably 25% of cases ~3 nights weekly, 25% 1-2 nights weekly, 15% infrequent travel, 35% no travel (including PEG). These days <20% of cases have any travel, TBD how that will evolve.

Hello there yourself!

Assume you will be traveling 3-4 days a week unless you do PEG or ask to be staffed on a local case

Hi all, recently a recruiter from Amazon reached out for an SDE 2(2+ years of exp. required) role and I'm a recent CS grad.

A few hours back, I got a call from the recruiter that I had cleared the assessment and tasks and said that they are looking for 2+ years of exp. I said I'm open to the SDE1 role and said she'll ask her colleagues. Idk what to expect now 😥 Amazon Amazon India
