How easy or hard it is for internal transfer for an L5 with 1 year in Amazon? What are the general steps and what is the best way to find a role besides looking though the internal job board. Tc: 280k #hiring #jobopening
As long as your current manager doesn’t block it and you clear the loops for new team, internal transfers are easy. I have done internal transfer 2 months after joining AWS and then again in next 3 months as I tried to find some peace, most of the teams are horrible in terms of WLB.. so make sure you are not on Dev list, always talk to HM, ask for informal intv loops and apply once everything is done. You might want to inform your current manager.
Yeah that’s what have I heard. Based on my interaction with my manager and my performance I don’t think I am on a dev list. Is there a sure short way to find that out?
You don't need to hit the 1 year mark?
Don’t hit “Apply” Contact Hiring Manager over Slack/Chime/Email Don’t hit “Apply” If HM likes you, you’ll have a loop Don’t hit “Apply” After loop, HM will tell you yes or no If it’s a Yes, schedule a meeting with current manager, keep the job posting open in one window with your mouse pointer directly above the “Apply” button. Hit Apply right as you tel your manager.
This is correct. Hit apply during the call. Don’t let them pip you!
Haha this is very helpful at the same time hilarious :)

Which location is it? I am in Bay Area, so my preference is Bay or full remote.
We don’t have full remote, I have my sister team in Bay Area and connect you with them
What will be a good TC for someone transferring from India? Base - 16L, JB - 5L+2L, 5 RSUs. Total YOE - 3, YOE at Amazon - 1.
Transferring to where?
Let's say Seattle
Whatever you do, dont be an US-L5 transferring to Canada. 1/3 salary cut expected, still stings hard when the offer comes in.
If you are looking exclusively for roles in the Bay Area, message me. I will send you the job reqs.
DM’d
Should be very easy. There are slack channels for job opportunities. There is one for remote opportunities if you are specifically looking for such teams.
Awesome, can you tell me the name of the slack channel?
