Hello, I worked at Amazon and have 2.3 years experience as an associate(non tech) at L2 level and quit Amazon back in march 2022. After that i did course on Devops/aws and have been attending interviews for the Devops position but failing to clear technical in some and managerial rounds in some companies and have been unemployed. I m really worried and confused at the same time, also feeling low in confidence. Amazon Tata Consultancy IBM Infosys AWS Oracle Capgemini

Am worried that this career gap might cause problems.
I completely regret my decision as i have been unemployed for 5 months .So should I look for opportunities in non tech or should I continue my search for Devops position?
Also if i want to get back to Amazon what are the possibilities and options that i can explore . please guide me.

Thanks for your reply hcl technologies...it really uplifts spirit.. but i m not getting calls since last month unlike before ...so it has created anxiety making me think of alternatives...i m totally confused and lacking networking as to how to connect with people/recruiters to ask them to consider my profile...so any leads or refferal will be of great help... looking for good opportunity. TIA

If you are good in core concepts, I guess good product companies won't mind your gap. But you should be really good with the core skills like OS and networking.

Thanks for the reply....as mentioned in the post , i have taken up course from edureka on Devops and i have completed and grasped the course content thoroughly and also prepared myself with the YouTube videos and blogs on commonly asked interview questions and clear with concepts but i lack the hands on work experience. So i m looking for 1 right opportunity which can help me grow and contribute to org as well..so i request anyone reading this post to help me with the same... thanks in advance

Can you please tell why you quit without any offer? Any reasons? And what was the tech stack in Amazon?

As mentioned in the post , i was basically Part of a non tech team from pricing ops which had their own tools to work upon .
I wanted to change domain from non tech to tech... I enrolled myself with Devops/ AWS Devops course from edureka and started the search.
During January, saw large number of openings from various organisations, also i had just finished certification, with positive hopes left Amazon thinking of getting opportunities.
One more reason to quit was thinking that the immediate joining factor might leverage my chances of getting opportunities.
But unfortunately luck didn't favour me and have been facing tough time

A former co-worker (not from W+K) who I know got let go because he was not effective or good at his job just got a new job as a VP of Design of a major corporation. He blatantly lied about his experience on LinkedIn (and I assume his resume), inflating his title and severely either overstating his role on projects or flat-out making up projects. It made me wonder just how many “leaders” do you think gain their roles this way? I know it happens, but that doesn’t lessen my anger one bit.

While I have largely felt rewarded by my work brand-side, one thing that my director colleagues and I can’t get over is that the marketing VPs that have come our way seem to feel their job is only to delegate and oversee work, not to pitch in on doing any of the actual work. We observe this is *not* true in other areas of the business (e.g., merchandising). Based on your experience, is this a departure from the norm or more-or-less how other marketing orgs function?
