Interviewed at Amazon once. The process came to be by a recruiter reaching out on LinkedIn (was pre Deloitte). Before the job that lead to the Amazon interview passed a resume and got a phone screen out of it. Imo anyone who has some qualifications usually gets thrown something. Depends on the kind of roles. Cloud roles are very in demand. If it’s more for the business side then either have big names on your resume or yeah, get a referral.

Yes - depending on who gives the referral / how they follow up internally, you’re at least guaranteed a phone screen

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
