Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?

Sounds like they will give you the opportunity to complete the process and stand in line. It’s up to you to decide if that’s a waste of time if they don’t hire you in the next 6 months. And they closed this position for everyone else that wanted to apply.

I completed the process, only they will not be able to make an offer upfront

It means you didn’t get it independent of hiring freeze or not. Sorry.

Thanks, I'll wait and try again in the future

I’m a first year and fucked up big time. The client doesn’t know about this but a senior associate was furious. I know it’s 100% my fault but no one above me actually reviewed my work bc everyone was so busy. But then I found out the senior gave a rant about how I fucked up to another colleague. When I apologized to him, he was really salty. Since then, my heart drops every time I see his email bc I’m too scared. He is usually pretty emotional and his instructions are vague, which doesn’t help.
