I got the same email but I thought it was basically a rejection?

supple mirage
#

same here

iron pollen
#

😭

supple mirage
#

it's a waitlist

#

L

iron pollen
#

That was my last hope

unborn flame
#

waitlist

iron pollen
#

😭😭😭

#

Do you guys know the chance of getting off the waitlist

supple mirage
#

probably slim to none

merry cliff
#

you might get pushed to fall

#

I did last year

supple mirage
#

do you have to request that?

#

or do they just do it

unborn flame
#

i think they ask you if you want to do fall

merry cliff
#

They ask if you're available for summer, fall, or both. I'll dig up my emails and try and get you a timeline.

supple mirage
#

is amazon fall worth it

iron pollen
#

I’d say so

supple mirage
#

if im doing cap one summer

#

ok hmm

iron pollen
#

I saw a Reddit thread from 2021 and seems like decent amount got off the waitlist

#

Although very small data set lol

jovial fulcrum
#

pain i got the same

merry cliff
#

Ok I spent the time digging shit up from last year to give you guys one data point

jovial fulcrum
#

@merry cliff is fall part time or full time?

unborn flame
#

around may 13th

#

asking for fall/summer

merry cliff
#

2021
Interviewed 3/18
Got waitlist and survey 3/25
Received pointless update to reconfirm interest 5/13
Offer 7/13

iron pollen
#

did you get survey right after waitlist

merry cliff
#

Yeah I got it in the same email. They'll probably send something about a survey later.

merry cliff
unborn flame
#

yea really is

merry cliff
#

full time

iron pollen
#

Damn I thought waitlist shouldn’t be an issue

#

There was some dude on Reddit today who had an interview tmr for intern

#

wondering why they’re still interviewing if full

jovial fulcrum
#

ty

iron pollen
#

R we sure this is even a waitlist? Sounds like everyone got the same email

merry cliff
#

This is what they sent me a year ago

jovial fulcrum
#

i’m pretty sure this is a waitlist, since rejection email is different

iron pollen
#

Yea mine does say it will send a survey

#

I’m guessing rejection wouldn’t even have that

#

But seems like no one got a rejection?

coral otter
#

damn i just got the same email

#

so waitlist started today?

merry cliff
#

They'll ask you to pick summer, fall, or both. The summer only people were the first to get cut obviously.

iron pollen
#

Maybe this is another fuck up? I saw some dude who had an interview for sde intern tmr but why would they interview if already full

jovial fulcrum
#

i’m pretty sure they continue interviewing even after the spots have filled up

merry cliff
#

yeah FB did the same thing this cycle

iron pollen
#

In my FAQ in the email, it says that ā€œwe are not moving forward with your candidacy at this timeā€

supple mirage
#

applying to fall internships rn lmao

coral otter
#

i mean in a google sheet from last year most people who got on the waitlist early got an offer

iron pollen
#

I just got the sievert

#

But there is no sde intern for position wtf

#

What do I choose lmao

merry cliff
#

yeah you guys got a decent chance for fall

iron pollen
#

Do I chose SDE for position

merry cliff
#

summer might be tough

iron pollen
#

There is no SDE intern position

coral otter
#

ya wtf theres only SDE

iron pollen
#

Should I just choose SDE

#

I’m not blind right? There’s no SDE intern lol

coral otter
#

yeah i dont see SDE intern idk what to pick

iron pollen
#

Feel like SDE is the closest option

coral otter
#

do we wait and email or something?

iron pollen
#

yea I figure

coral otter
#

theres "amazon future engineer" but i dont think thats it

iron pollen
#

I’ll just go with SDE for now

#

yea that’s a scholarship thing

coral otter
#

wait does that mean theyre full for SDE interns? cause i see other interns

iron pollen
#

No this is a waitlist tho

#

so they should all be full

coral otter
#

yeah but u can pick any role

iron pollen
#

But it’s asking for role we interviewed

coral otter
#

yeah true

#

what did it say when u put SDE?

iron pollen
#

just asked me to pick locations

#

I don’t think it should be a huge issue since we put in our own survey ID

undone sedge
#

you'll get it

iron pollen
#

I think it might be an error cause I feel like there isn’t a waitlist for SDE

#

they always need more SDE at amazon lol

#

Why would there be a waitlist

undone sedge
#

I heard ppl on wait list usually get moved off pretty quickly

iron pollen
#

Hopefully šŸ™

jovial fulcrum
#

didn’t have an option for fall/summer

#

did you guys?

iron pollen
#

Nope

#

What did you guys choose for role?

#

Not sure if SDE was the right choice and I don’t wanna email them because that automatically removes u from the waitlist

coral otter
#

ngl i only want 1 location from but i feel like picking 1 is not the move

#

i mean we can email after

iron pollen
#

Lol def don’t pick just 1

#

I selected every single one

jovial fulcrum
#

wait i emailed the email asking a question

#

fuck did i auto remove myself

iron pollen
#

As long as you didn’t reply to the ā€œUPDATE: Your amazon applicationā€

#

I sent a separate email to SDE-intern email

#

Actually I think that was a typo

jovial fulcrum
#

i did

#

fuck dude no way

iron pollen
#

I got a confirmation email saying I filled the survey for SDE intern

jovial fulcrum
iron pollen
jovial fulcrum
#

i got this after sending the email

iron pollen
#

I forgot if it was reply to the original email for the survey email

coral otter
#

i dont think they would auto reject without reading the message

#

^thats the email they asked you to reply to

jovial fulcrum
#

i did reply to that email

#

i didnt read the bototm

#

bottom*

#

@iron pollen you got an email confirming that you completed the survey?

#

i didn't

iron pollen
#

Na I was tripping lol. It was an automated message to my email

coral otter
#

i didnt either

jovial fulcrum
#

ahh okok ty

coral otter
#

ah

iron pollen
#

Yea I think SDE was the right choice tho, seems like same thing for last year

#

They had no option for SDE intern

jovial fulcrum
#

do you guys think i should email them stating i dont want to be removed

#

i emailed the original email with that subject line

#

or do you guys think they'll read my response

#

sorry, just worried i accidentally fucked myself over lol

coral otter
#

theyll read your response but it doesnt hurt to send a different email

#

imo

iron pollen
#

^

jovial fulcrum
#

tyty

sweet otter
#

ask if you can join a subsidary instead of normal amazon

#

like audible or amazon robotics

#

idk if you can do that cuz im not familier with how normal amazon works

#

but give it a shot

supple mirage
#

aight i emailed them lmao

jovial fulcrum
#

@supple mirage what email address did you use?

supple mirage
#

the same one they sent the original email with

#

but i sent a separate email with a diff subject

jovial fulcrum
#

ahh okay thank you

supple mirage
#

i feel like waitlist won't move since it's so late in the season and ppl aren't going to decline offers anymore

#

this might be the only shot

#

idk, i could be wrong tho

jovial fulcrum
#

yeah, i agree

#

unless a lot of people decline offers i’m going to try and take every chance i can get

sweet otter
#

i think its too late for people to renege

#

most of the good places stopped hiring for summer

jovial fulcrum
#

@merry cliff in your survey did you get asked to choose summer/fall or was that not until the second update in May
