Hello, I am having my first connect with recruiter at Amazon for modernisation Architect role next week. It is scheduled for 30 min. Could anyone throw some lights on how the first connect looks like. Do I need to prepare in terms of behavioral questions(which I seen quite a lot in everyone's post) . Thank in advance you for your support.

Unlikely
If you are laid off (downsized) probably, if you are fired (for cause), then I would doubt it.
Yup . Cathy is generous
Laid off =\= getting fired
No severance if you're fired with cause
Fired for cause either requires a policy violation (expensing dinners on Thursday nights at home) or long term non performance against a performance improvement plan. Anything else pretty is grey and the firm will avoid lawsuits by giving severance.
Correct Pdubs1
I bet they do. Otherwise, opening itself up for lawsuits.
So they do pay you? Mixed feedback here.
If you are fired for performance I don't think so. If you are laid off due to low utilization then yes. You should get severance.
If being fired for performance coincides with layoffs and downsizing, you should get severance and can potentially even sue for wrongful dismissal. Companies give different reasons to different employees, often randomly, to get around WARN laws (google it) .
What's the severance package
You get paid to leave if your malingering existence matters. Does it?
How much severance is considered reasonable?
