I took uber offer bc i thought it was more prestigious(more resume value for next internship vs taking return offer) than amazon and would lead to more growth. Is this not true? Amazon not AWS.
tbh don’t think there’s much difference, IME any top reputable company is enough to land most interviews.
Im still getting ghosted by snapchat. For microsoft i had to email recruiters to get an interview with amazon onmy resume. Hopefully with uber its different.
At a certain point it's luck. They're not comparing you 1 to 1 with an Amazon resume or a Facebook resume. They look at your resume and if they think you're good enough/a good fit you'll get an interview, and Uber/Amazon are both good enough for most companies. I say this with Amazon/Microsoft on my resume and my girlfriend is a recruiter who is friends with many other recruiters at other companies.
Probably more prestige but Uber is less recession safe than say AWS right now. Prestige is a bull market luxury
