Just got dinged in Amazon interview. As a policy they can’t provide feedback. Any idea what they look for Program Manager role? I thought I had valid experience and interview was really conversational but surprised at the decision.

Huh? Where did the sexism comment come from? Someone earlier asked if they should wear a suit or business casual for a Zoom interview. I thought it was with Amazon. I was wrong. You need to go have a drink or 5 and chill. Wow.

Does anyone enter a “f*ck up” spiral and how do you get out? Like when you miss a nit or even larger typo in a brief or miss an issue in a sub/cite and someone calls you out in it, and then you doubt every proof you do, get anxious about f*cking up, and inevitably f*ck up again. Trying to decide if I’m burnt out after three crazy months or if I just suck at this job and should hang it up if I can’t get it back together soon. I don’t trust myself anymore.
