Just came to know that Amazon hired 80 interns just from a university like UTD. Is this the next level of mass hiring?
Also, for new grad full time, they are giving away offers after a couple of phone interviews. In the phone interview they ask the same question they asked for online assessment. Why has the bar gone so low? It means you are hiring any random guy having a degree. How do you verify if someone can even code a single line with this hiring methology?

Yahoo: have you considered that you’re misreading the principle? You’re assuming ( I think) that the principle says hire the best and develop them. But what if it’s hire (an implicit “everyone”) and only develop the best, and (implicit) fire the rest?
I'm an industry hire so didn't join as a new grad
Amazon mass hires new grads with their shortlist/shortcut interviews. Reason is its easier for them to mass hire and mass fire when most of them wont cut it for long term and the work they need to do has been done by them already. Rinse and repeat. Burn and churn.
This doesnt happen at L5/6+ experienced hires. So you can easily put together why.
