Hi , I Currently have two Internship offers from Amazon and Yahoo. looking at the situation in the market, Yahoo's history has been like they would not offer unless they want to hire you as FT, whereas Amazon has a history of converting 85% interns into FT provided you perform well. i had few points that i would focus on: 1. Department - Yahoo - it is vertical support group(chances of dependecy on the dept is high) amazon - i am not yet sure about it (would soon get to know) 2. conversion ratio in this time - yahoo people who worked at yahoo says very high chances of coverting FT whereas with amazon - the brand value and considering other things opportunites would be more. Can someone who work at Amazon shed some light on how is amazon doing for intern-ft conversion? Is it dependent on the department/orgs ? if yes which orgs/dept are performing well for amazon or doing well in general? also how easy/difficult it is to find an internal opportunity in amazon if i seem to join in and find FT conversion ? any inputs would be helpful. thank you #Internship #Amazon #Yahoo
Pick Amazon 100000%, yahoo a dying company LMAO and amazon will give u FAANG on ur resume. I got an offer from yahoo too but I just picked to stay @ Bloomberg.
do you think the possibility of yahoo giving FT to amazon would be much lesser ? or is it because amazon being on resume would bring many other opportunities ? i am conerned about amazon in this situation laying off tons of people might just not be a good idea. under normal circumstances amazon would be the best opportunity people can take on. thanks for your advice, it would be great if you can elaborate more.
I used to work at yahoo until last year. They are now owned by a private equity company and their plan is to split the company up into different parts (for example separate yahoo finance from yahoo news) and then possibly sell each part individually. So your chance of getting a FT offer is dependent on which part of the company you are in. In your situation, I would pick whichever offer has the most interesting project and the best people. In which interview did you feel like you got along with the interviewers best? Getting a return offer will also be highly contingent on the manager in either company, so make sure you like the manager.
Is yahoo finance safe?
