So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

They should just make it 25+ in a fiscal Q, or 45+ in a fiscal year, so it can't be skirted well

Did a client recently not deliver timely feedback or cancel a creative review last minute? Did your last brief have twice the amount of deliverables as they normally would? Did you happen to notice a conference meeting with a bunch of agency leadership happening?
Those are a few pretty decent signals but tbh in this climate I would not feel safe anywhere
