AWS cloud application architect. Had an on-site interview with AWS a few days ago and just got an email saying they want to talk to me about next steps. The role is cloud application architect but I want to ask them about the senior cloud application architect role. I have all the relevant experience for that role and feel like I’d be a better fit for that senior role. How should I approach this conversation? Is this even possible? Amazon
Anyone hiring for a paid acquisition marketer? 👀

Honestly yes, I would love to not be sitting on the computer all day. Ideally, I would want to own a small business that allows me to stand up, walk around, and talk to customers constantly. Not to mention, I’d be the owner of my own time.
exactly what i am doing now, changing to build my own company,
Yes everyday. I’m very good at what I do but the environment sucks and pay is getting worse. No longer happy even though I love tech.
Yes and no. Had my share good and bad management. Bad management can make it or break it.
Every day, have something lined up that's completely different...if offered I'll most likely take it and the paycut
I have but it was when I started having kids that I didn't want to miss being home with them. I almost left but then decided I wanted to have a career and be a mom and it was possible for me to have both.
It's not my first choice as a career but since tech jobs pay well, I stayed and continue building my career here. I jump into several roles, and still learning currently, There is still a big market for Tech but one has to upskill to stay in the game.
The sedentary lifestyle can cause serious health problems in the future but to migitate it, it's up to us to keep our body healthy!
I left tech. Was working on a joke of a team at a healthcare company where my partner showed up 1 hour every 2 weeks. Our job couldn't be done from home - new hire hardware, termination returns, printer support, etc. He had been checked out for years and when management was confronted they both said "we know" and also "I thought he was your friend" as though that excused the behavior and absolved them of the need to manage. For the one hour every two weeks the partner showed up all he did was bitch about how much work there was to do..... and how lazy the other techs were.... literal insane bull*hit. They proceeded to block me from getting an identical job at a company we contracted with whom they were trying to get to do our imaging before the laptops reached us. All this was done by someone who responded to about 25% of all emails, acted confused as hell when receiving orders for equipment despite onboarding 100 people per month regularly, and often responded to the 25% of emails he did respond to twice. This guy by his own admission smoked a lot of marijuana. It's an absolute joke out there, especially at Colored Cross, Colored Shield. Thanks, Sarah! Glad you hired McKinsey consultants and spent millions on Wall St advisors to let your management run absolutely amuck.
Hmm
Yes, and have my own business
I loved my Tech roll , just finding it very hard to return do my age , I would return in a heartbeat .
This is becoming a daily thought.
I chose tech years ago, because the pay was great.
Thinking back now, I should have focused on marketing or finance. Tired of studying to stay on top
I picked tech because it seemed relevant to design and ux. Looking back, being a finance bro would have been a better choice. It's not about fulfillment, its about making sure the people in charge have what they need to talk to investors about more made up shit. Tech is an afterthought. If carpentry had the same hype as tech, you better believe that none of us would be having this conversation. It's about the money.
