Have an offer to join LEK as a Manager, lateral move from current manager role. Would love to know whether you would make the move in this situation and the drivers.

Specific details:
- ZS: WLB manageable, 55 h a week, strong Principal advocates, kind clients, lower TC, autonomy to manage own team and portfolio of work, perhaps too much responsibility for the TC IMO
- LEK: TC 50-70% higher, would need to learn new types of work that’s more strategic, WLB sounds less flexible, hours at 60h-70h

recently had the opportunity to join the Amazon Ads team through a referral from an old colleague. Pats the first round of interview but ultimately decided to end the process as I wasn’t interested in the role.

Then last week got a request to interview for a PMM job I had applied to a few months back. Started prepping only for the recruiter to call me saying that the interview had to be postponed due to needing to change the “job id”.

Do you think the job has been eliminated?

Hi fishes,

I'm in a non technical role and trying to switch to testing profile. I have knowledge in Java, selenium, TestNG, Cucumber, Postman. I've been trying to switch but companies are considering me as fresher and providing package less than my CCTC(4lpa,4 yoe). I got selected in one company but they're not sending OL. It will be really helpful if someone can refer me in your company.

Need this switch badly due to less CTCC.

Phone interview on Chime with video on?

My
Amazon recruiter asked for a phone interview on Chime with the hiring manager. Is it absolutely a phone interview, or I may need to turn the camera on?

I ran into situations where the Amazon recruiter said it was a phone interview, and the interviewer turned on their camera or asked me if I preferred doing video...

Will doing a video interview deliver a better result than a phone interview? Phone interviews are less effort, of course…

Hi I just received a verbal offer for a non-tech position and I’m awaiting the comp package. I know from previous posts that Amazon packages are mainly equity based but do they ever not meet the base salary requirements you specified? & “make up” for it by offering you higher RSU’s?

Interviewed on 17th October about a Business Development graduate role, after one week later the HR contacted me said they will call me about my application. However,no calls or any emails. After the final interview, I found that the role is closed and my application was under consideration for about one month and then changed to no longer under consideration few days ago. Any advice? Thank you!
