I got 7 interviews deep for a role in-house at a company that I'd really like to work for. They said they'd keep me in mind for future openings in the department.
It's been 4 months and I haven't heard about any opening roles. They do have a role that is tangentially related to my skill-set (would be a stretch for me, but maybe in a good way?), but I'm concerned that shooting for this and missing might reflect badly for an opening that would be more in my wheelhouse.
Thoughts?

“We’ll keep you in mind” is a nice way of saying you’re not getting the job. They won’t keep you in mind unless you apply again and your name pops up during the keyword search.

7 interviews ?

They are most likely not thinking of you at all, even for a perfect role that may come up. They will always go through the process from 0 and pick a fresh face over the candidate they didn’t think was the best last time. Runners-up may as well be last place. I say that as a multiple runner-up. Your only path into this company is to slide into a decision-makers DMs, but that’s a long game.

Move on. It’s over. 7 interviews in means you made an impression so keep the contacts, but this is a dead end.

Hello people, how common is a Amazon to PWC move ?
I’m interviewing for a Senior Associate role and TC seems to be more competitive than role in L5.

TC $114k- Base AMZ- $73k +$38kstocks ( vesting 17k$ due next year)

TC $135k Base PWC -$81$ + Bonuses ( 50k$)

Looking for managerial skills which the PWC role avails, and L6 promo doesn’t seem to be happening soon in current role. I’m also mentally stretched. I hear WLB in PWC is just as busy but can anyone confirm if this move makes any sense. Google Amazon

I moved to the Netherlands 3 months ago on a spouse visa. Was working with EY-P earlier. I have been applying to jobs and giving interviews but for some reason things are not working out. I get a different reason everytime (after going through the whole process). This has never happened earlier in life and now I don't know what else to do. I have worked as a strategy consultant (& a researcher). Should I change lines? Where else can I try?
I can't apply to boutique firms since Dutch is mandatory
