I turned down a role at Amazon... Made a mistake and want to take it. It's been a month. Is there any recourse, or should I just cry into this glass of whiskey?...

def circle back with the recruiter or the hiring manager if you got to meet that person. Something similar happened to me right after undergrad and it all worked out. I explained to them what had happened. It was an uncomfortable situation but worth having it.

After a month, you might be drinking your own tears my friend unless you kept a good relationship with recruiter and hiring manager. In that case, they may be able to create a role for you if the one you had is filled

You could circle back with the recruiter if you left on good terms. May not be able to get it back now but could be considered if there is another opening

might be different cuz my friend is an engineer, but he rejected his offer and the recruiter checked up with him every few months to ask if he wanted to consider accepting. they said they'd keep his offer open for a year

like

prob different because I think they usually hire to fill specific openings in their business functions, but if the position is still open I bet they'd still take you

Doesn't hurt to reach out to the recruiter. When I turned down Accenture, she actually said to reach out in the future if I decided to make a change. Some companies and recruiters are very understanding.

What would you choose? MBB (Digital practice) or Amazon PMT?

Background: T15 MBA student, 7YoE as Mech engineer, long term goal is to climb ladder in Tech, married and have a 2year old

Situation: I have a MBB and Amazon PMT offer for summer internship that I need to choose. MBB comes with FT offer, Amazon PMT will most likely result in return offer. If I go with MBB, I plan to exit to big Tech in 2-3 years. Y1 TC for both will be quite similar (around 230k).

Thank you in advance!

I recently transitioned from a small, boutique agency to a global agency — meaning I went from being on an account team of 2, to being on a team of 10+. I’m also not currently managing anyone (and I miss it!). I entered this new role promising myself to set new boundaries since I’m used to measuring my success by my stress level. However, old habits die hard. I feel underutilized six months into the role. How can I adjust to finally having support and resources after years of abuse?

Today's tip: Your resume (and cover letter) should target the specific position. The easiest way to do this is to edit your professional summary and key skills sections (which should comprise the top third of your resume) to reflect the qualifications required or desired in the job posting. Be honest – only reference those skills you have!
