I’m scheduled for my first case interview in less than 2 weeks but don’t feel that I’m ready and could use the extra prep time. When I had initially spoke with the recruiter, he told me I could move out my initial call if needed. I emailed him last week to see if I could reschedule to a later date but have not heard back. Would you follow up or is that going to jeopardize my interview?

I would follow up! He likely forgot to respond/did not receive it.

Thanks again for your suggestion! The recruiter got back to me today and now have a month to prepare. 😅

You can always move your date back. If you need more time to prepare I would just tell them that.

Do you have advice on how to interview better with Amazon?

My résumé and portfolio are great, and I’ve been asked to interview with Amazon for 4 different teams now. However, it seems like I’m not making it past the first 1:1 interview. 3 out of 4 have resulted in not the right fit for reasons unknown; they don’t provide any feedback either. I have been invited for a new interview today with another team, and I am hoping 4th time is the charm. Any tips on how to do better next time?

It happened again today. I was walking from my car into a building and remembered I had forgotten to lock my car. I had the urge to turn around but I remembered that the only valuable thing in my car was my work laptop. And I would cry tears of joy if someone broke into my car and stole my work laptop. Can anyone relate to this feeling?
