AWS cloud application architect. Had an on-site interview with AWS a few days ago and just got an email saying they want to talk to me about next steps. The role is cloud application architect but I want to ask them about the senior cloud application architect role. I have all the relevant experience for that role and feel like I’d be a better fit for that senior role. How should I approach this conversation? Is this even possible? Amazon

death in the family is always a good one
All I've ever had to say was this:
"I've had some personal stuff come up that requires my attention. I'll be out of the office from x to x. I'll be able to check my email periodically, but will not be immediately available to respond. I'd be happy to fill in someone and get them up to speed to act on my behalf in case of emergency where immediacy is needed. Sorry for any inconvenience."
If your team wants a doctor's note you really need to bounce.
I don't ask for PTO, I take PTO.
How long is the round trip? Go with nurovirus or something that's gross and horrible and would put you out of commission for a few days, but that you probably wouldn't go to the doc for.
And for the love of god, stay the fuck off social. The number of asshats I've seen get busted that way... 😒
Oh nooo. Chest cold. Dying. I'm dying. Dead. See you in four days when I recover. That is, if I'm not dead.
Thanks for all the helpful responses. Looks like my grandma is about to pass away.
That's what Photoshop is for
I can't believe all these responses with the sickness! Take your PTO whenever and for whatever you want, that's basically what we work for...time off (and dolla dolla bills y'all)!
Pro Tip: "Family Emergency" requires no explanation before or after said alleged event.
Take the risk. Grab the prize. Life is very short.
Go with sickness, not family death. Because god forbid something actually happened to that family member later on, you'd probably never forgive yourself.
Yep, get sick. Everyone does it
Food poisoning. And stay off social.
You said dream job. You get to that damn interview and you get that job... By any means necessary.
Pick a relative. Tell work they died. Interview.
Say you're sick. Never lie about family emergencies that's just bad taste.
Pick someone who already died and tell your job that they died. They've already died so you're not lying you're just announcing it now
Food poisoning. If you tell them you're puking and shitting your brains out, they won't have follow up questions.
Can't believe this thread. Take the PTO. It's your salary. And if they think you're going on an interview, good. If they fire you for wanting to go to a better place, they're doing you a favor.
I'm so sorry to hear about your Aunt Glenda. I know she was like a mother to you. Take all the time you need.
