Best agency for programmatic?
Got a random email from a supposed Amazon recruiter for a SDE position (which is not at all a fit). The email is amazon.com domain and there are no red flags in the body but it doesn't feel like an Amazon recruiter due to the tacky signature, etc. Has anyone seen this kind of cold-calling from FAANG recruiter?

At minimum eu261 is in play because the trip navigated EU airspace.
I’d look for additional compensation on any added expenses for food etc. unlikely to get much more than minimum even as 1K.
Expected comp would probably be 700-800 euros depending on expenses involved
United agrees they screwed up and should compensate I’m just curious from others’ similar experiences, what might be expected.
(If someone paid you $8k and you did a horrible job and it was your fault, would you not take care of that customer?)
What was their fault?

1. Ask to be put on other airlines with interline agreements, even non star alliance ones. Delays happen and there are only so many flights out there. If they've tried their best to route you already then it is what it is.
2. You should be able to claim EU261. Retain all receipts you have for food, drink, other travel expenses etc.
Send an email to 1k voice/file a complaint and you'll prob get some travel credits or miles
