How did you got Amazon Dublin as a fresher? They didn't force you to opt for Hyderabad or Bangalore since they've lots of openings here

LinkedIn You Feb 28, 2022

Amazon you should consider as it'll be a better lifestyle in Dublin and more opportunities. whereas DE Shaw is not even product based so good work is not a guarantee. Amazon culture might suck but atleast you'll get good work and good location.

Have you ever been to Dublin? Lifestyle there is crap.

Are you from IIT? Imo, de shaw is more prestigious than amazon!

If you want to learn scale, dont join shaw. Max number of users at any point of time for any product here is < 2000.

What did you finally do? I'm in a similar situation. Amazon Berlin, DeShaw, and current org. Also, would the answer be any different if we add Google Dublin too? Thank you. 🙌 PS: I'm a new grad from India.

I got an offer from Google Dublin and went with it

GitHub myghty Aug 5, 2022

I might or might not get it, because of hiring slowdown. Is the role SDE-SRE?
