I have a L5 interview in 3 weeks (by mid-January). But, i am currently in OPT-STEM period and my visa ends by July, with one more H1B lottery pending.

If somehow I do well in my interview, would Amazon be willing to proceed? Or is the chance bleak due to visa issue? #amazon

    Some companies like Facebook wont even hire you even if you pass the interview if you have one chance remaining, so better clear this up upfront

    Most companies are doing visa evaluations before inviting to onsite interviews.

      Also, you can ask recruiter to schedule interview earlier, and for TPM role, questions will be all LP based

      If they really want you, they will do anything to keep you. Canada is the usual back up plan. The more important question to ask yourself is do you really want Amazon?

    You have two attempts remaining provided you wrap up your interview and offer negotiations latest by end of February.

    Attorneys will need a month to prepare your petition to be applied by April 1st. Good luck!

      Aah sorry. I misread the 'one more H-1B lottery pending' part. Anyway timeline still remains the same.
