Hi everyone - I made it to the final round of interviews with Amazon for a Program Manager position. They initially asked if I would relocate and at the time I said yes - however, due to my husband’s new job I’m no longer able to relocate.
Has anyone ever negotiated to work remote for Amazon?

Talk to your recruiter- they will talk to the hiring manager and find out for you. If you can find out now instead of going through the loop I would do it that way. If they give you something get it in writing if you can (confirmation back to recruiter in email, something).

Good luck

Thank you!

So I just got an offer and the recruiter told me candidly that I had a year to move, 6 months into the role if you’re doing well in a virtual setting - you can get a waiver from the hiring manager. Again it’s only a possibility

like

Thank you. That could work well for me if it’s a possibility!

Did your job description have offices listed on it? I have seen like 3 locations listed even though it might say Seattle.

like

Yes - they were flexible to relocation to Los Angeles, Arlington or Seattle. However, unfortunately at this time I can’t move to either of these cities.

I do live in a city where there’s an Amazon office though.

Finished my loop for a marketing role 2 weeks ago, and got an email the next day that they wanted to give me an offer. Had my initial call with recruiter to put the offer together. It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions.

Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?
