Bless you PMs.

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

That is tough when it wasn’t even your choice to be moved around so much. I would maybe bring it up if that happens again. Depending on whether or not you want to be, make it known that having subpar performance because you were pulled in so many directions isn’t a good scenario for you.
I guess the main achievement is that you kept your job, even if it was something of a bumpy ride. If you can point out next time, or even amend the review already completed, and indicate that you had been moved about, you can perhaps turn your circumstances into an achievement. You were moved about and took on various tasks and proved yourself to be highly adaptable. If you can make the point that the numbers don't tell the whole story perhaps you can give yourself a boost.
