How do peer interviews work typically?
 As a candidate being sent to peer interviews next week, I’m curious to see if that means I have a good chance securing the
position? Any tips on peer interviews? Never had this asked of me previously. I’ve had 2 interviews already.

It sounds like you’re talking about an internal transfer position? And if so, is it for the same role you’re in now (just on a different team), or is it a completely different role? Each hiring manager will handle things in their own way, but those interviewers will be assigned specific LPs and/or functional competencies just like for external loops. The difference is that you’re already an Amazonian and assumed to meet the bar, so they’ll typically be evaluating against factors that are considered particularly important, specific, or unique to the actual position. For example, as an AE, maybe there are particular considerations for the customer(s) that make things like dealing with executives, handling greenfield customers, handling high/low cloud maturity customers particularly important? Maybe background or understanding of specific industries, their unique challenges, etc. are a focus area. Too many factors to enumerate, but the more you understand in advance what is needed at the position you’re transferring into and what stories/examples from your experience apply to demonstrate your competence in that role the better. And like always, have LP stories ready.

Hey Google nooglers. How to get noticed by Google recruiters. I have just started my notice period and would like to try.

I applied for a Director Learning and Development (L&D) role at McKinsey about a month ago via a referral. About a week ago, my McKinsey employee (who referred me) received an automated email saying that I had moved to the pre-screening process of the recruitment process and that I'll hear from the recruiter shortly.

It's more than a week now and I haven't heard back. Can anyone shed light on the process -- what to expect, timelines, what is the interview process like, etc.

Thanks!
