#

call out big yahu

valid owl
#

apparently to get an intv u gotta get team matched or smth

humble ingot
#

oooh i see what he means

valid owl
#

they overhauled like the entire proc from prev years lmao

dusk hull
#

when'd you take oa @azure vector

#

took oa back in oct when the proc opened and didn't hear back until early march

azure vector
#

have gotten 3 of the still under consideration emails since then

dusk hull
#

all you cld do is prob wait

#

maybe ask your recruiter for changes in avaiability etc

proper skiff
#

This zon shit so confusing

dusk hull
#

i got an extra info email in late jan

#

then interview invite first week march

dire agate
#

ppl who got oa later in the cycle seem to have a faster proc ngl

proper skiff
#

Yeah fr

dire agate
#

if you haven’t heard back a week or so after march oa it’s probably cooked

dusk hull
#

my timeline was

oa (halloween time around then)
extra info jan ~25
int invite march 3-5 or smth
interview march 17
accepted march 19

dire agate
#

did u get successful oa email

dusk hull
#

soon after yeah but those are automated unless its from recruiter

dire agate
#

yea

#

that was earlier in the cycle tho

#

ppl who got oa in march aren’t getting extra info email and stuff a couple months later

#

it’s more expedited due to the closer start date

dusk hull
#

ofc

real violet
#

I got the OA march 9 and interviewed today

SAME BOATTTTT
THIS IS ANNOYING

jade basin
#

Yeah honestly relatively few people have even been matched at my school (t20 that sent tons of randos to amzn last year)

#

I mean one reason I’m still holding out hope is that most people getting selected now likely have offers and I’m telling you many won’t renege stuff even if they absolutely should

#

Like I saw a guy who was considering not doing his Amazon interview because he already had tip

rain rune
#

yeah its frustrating

#

in the same boat

jade basin
#

yeah that's my position as well

#

my backup is good but amazon especially this year with so little offers given out would be amazing resume value

#

also this yeah a lot of teams are using very hard processes so a lot of good candidates aren't even making it through

#

so hc might not even be reached until late april

#

I don't think any PHX, LAX, or SAN based teams have even done interviews yet

fossil cove
#

what does the application status on the portal show for you? @azure vector @jade basin @fair drift @rain rune

azure vector
jade basin
#

yup says that for me as well

#

@fair drift Is your resume relevant for db teams?

#

yeah that's probably why

#

I had some graph database experience (much more niche skill) and got passed over for neptune teams because there were candidates with both graph database experience and database internals experience

#

you probably were explored with alignment yet didn't match their criteria

#

so you're probably now mainly matching for more general teams

#

yes specific team has to choose you

#

same

#

idek if cold emailing even works here

#

like are hms searching through portals for candidates like they are for google

#

or are they shown resumes by recruiters

#

last year hiring was so crazy

#

like I bet most of us would have gotten offers by now

fossil cove
#

i think the status changes to no longer under consideration if we are selected for interview

rain rune
#

man i’ve got just general web dev exp i’m never getting picked

storm stratus
#

my status changed to no longer under consideration today after oa pass email yesterday but no invite yet

fossil cove
#

@storm stratus did it change today?

storm stratus
#

I just got interview schedule email

fossil cove
#

dang nice
it didnt change for me yet

#

still says application submitted

#

when did you give your oa?

storm stratus
fossil cove
#

was it application submitted before today @storm stratus

storm stratus
fossil cove
#

any of you got interviews?

rain rune
#

nope not me

#

its too late now

jade basin
#

Apparently the last day for interviews is 4/22

#

So I agree honestly

#

Would take a very lucky break to get a process

#

And if an interview comes it will probably be minimal notice

fossil cove
#

@jade basin some people got sched dates till 30th

jade basin
#

nice to know that sudo's lying lmao

fossil cove
#

am so dead
my status still says application submitted

#

I dont think there is chance

azure vector
#

do they keep your app for fall if you put as an option or is it ggs after theyre done with summer interviewing

rain rune
#

got another still in consideration email today

azure vector
#

twin

fossil cove
#

#

we are gone
