So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

Any sugar (tree nut on Amazon, or Sephora brand or Fresh brown sugar scrub are great, or salt based scrub followed up with deep hydration like Aquaphor is good.
Love this one - Check this out! https://a.co/d/i4WXRsC
I actually had a sample of this and finally tried it out, definitely works! Will purchase.
I have the same issue and use this for my feet, knees and elbows:
Urea Cream 40% Plus Salicylic Acid 4.6 Oz, Callus Remover Hand Cream Foot Cream For Dry Cracked Feet, Hands, Heels, Elbows, Nails, Knees, Intensive Moisturizes & Softens Skin, Exfoliates Dead Skin https://a.co/d/bnf8cQH
It’s a gentle exfoliant and is a great moisturizer. Shady Amazon let me know I’ve ordered it 11 times already 🤣
I hope you have great results!!!
I don’t have any scrub recommendations, but I did buy this body wash with glycolic acid for the winter that’s really helped to exfoliate. The Smoother Glycolic Acid... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1PFCGZ8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

It’s the best, I really noticed a difference after I started using it. Helps with razor bumps too.
My absolute favorite - makes your skin so smooth and feels great!

One of the best scrubs available is Frank's Original Coffee Scrub, which moisturizes and exfoliates your skin and I love the citrus scent of it. It leaves my skin feeling so supple.
The First Botany Arabica Coffee Scrub is a good one since it has a mixture of olive oil, sweet almond oil, and shea butter to keep the skin hydrated while sloughing away the rough patches.
If you're willing to splurge, try the Ouai Scalp and Body Scrub. While being strong on rough skin, this scrub is yet soft enough to apply to your delicate scalp.
I found the Hero Cosmetics Brave Body Scrub off of a Tiktok video, and it did not disappoint. It's also great for acne-prone skin.
The Tree Hut Shea Sugar Scrub is really affordable which was the only reason I bought it. But now, I keep coming back to it. It's incredibly moisturizing.
The Nip+Fab Glycolic Fix Body Scrub is the one I use. I love how it breaks down the dead skin cells with the help of the glycolic acid but still keeps it hydrated with the shea butter.
You should try the Glossier Body Hero Exfoliating Bar. It has enough grit to scrub off the dead skin cells while locking in the moisture.
Not exactly the scrub you're looking for but I use the Soft Services Buffing Bar. Weekly use is suitable for most skin types because this bar is a moderate to powerful fragrance-free exfoliator.
I've gotten some nice ones from this little indie place called Haus of Gloi - not sure if they still make them? I used to love their body butters too!
Wash in warm water with baking soda paste then cover in vaseline
Vaseline is the winner
The Dove Exfoliating Body Polish with macadamia and rice extract is the one I use and it only retails for $7 a tub on Amazon.
A great body cleanser that exfoliates skin is available from CeraVe at a reasonable price. Salicylic acid makes up the majority of the formula, and niacinamide helps soothe skin after exfoliation.
I still can't find the scrub that suits my skin type. Every time I use a scrub, my skin becomes itchy.
