Got a random email from a supposed Amazon recruiter for a SDE position (which is not at all a fit). The email is amazon.com domain and there are no red flags in the body but it doesn't feel like an Amazon recruiter due to the tacky signature, etc. Has anyone seen this kind of cold-calling from FAANG recruiter?
Probably a new joiner?

Set a delayed send to 7:30am local time
No one cares. I sent things whenever I want. Team members can read the email whenever they want

Set your email to send it out at 2am 🤣
You’re outlook application needs to be connected to the internet, not sure if outlook web can send delayed messages
You want credit for working late. Send now.
You don’t want to have it send too late. Then you get feedback that either your technical skills aren’t up to snuff that it’s taking you that long to complete your work, or you don’t know how to prioritize. Personally, I’ll send up until midnight, but then nothing against until 7:30 am.
I would put something like “not urgent” so I don’t create unnecessary stress for that person and indicate that you just want to send this before you forget tomorrow.
Don’t do delayed unless you’re going to be up that time.
I’ll give a direct answer: in consulting, before 12:30.
In industry, before 11.
No rhyme or reason- these are just the last times where I think “oh they were putting in some extra time” or “they fired the laptop up after dinner” vs. “something must be going wrong” or “they are inefficient”.
Caveat: A few days before a client meeting, no send time would strike me as weird.
