Is Amazon really going through a hiring freeze? Can anyone confirm this? Haven’t heard from my recruiter since August 30th after they told me I got moved to the loop interview. Will appreciate any insights here.

It’s business/team dependent, some are still hiring and some are freezing. Very few going through cuts though (as of now at least)

It is not a full hiring freeze across the whole company but many poisitions have been placed on hold from what I understand. But they did not ghost. My recruiter did call to tell me the position I had been interviewing for had been put on hold

Did your recruiter let you know how long the hiring freeze will be in place for? Mine just went silent. She told me I was going to be moved to another team that was hiring and I never heard from her again!

No, she didn't tell me how long but she did pass me along to a different team fairly quickly

Got an offer beginning of September from Amazon fresh.

I did hear this from someone who recently got laid off by Amazon…. Lay-offs and hiring freezes
