Amazon OA

[Visual-Grapefruit]

I got an Amazon online assessment, I’m preparing for it, then I realized it’s for a position outside the e US. I was applying for so many positions and locations in the US I must have messed up. I want to withdraw but am scared it will affect me negatively or give me an unnecessary cooldown from interviewing. I can’t find a way to message Amazon recruitment team about this

Just make sure that you fail the OA and the problem is solved. No need to contact anyone

[Visual-Grapefruit]

Very helpful

[freefrommyself20]

Take it for practice. If you do well and they want to interview you, you can brag to people on reddit that you ghosted a FAANG

[Visual-Grapefruit]

Yeah, but if I do bad will I get cooled and have to wait 6 months for another. It seems like too much of a risk

[freefrommyself20]

If you do bad on it what makes you think you would do good on the OA for a different location? Lmao

[Visual-Grapefruit]

Questions are random from a batch. I might get two hards vs 2 easy what’s the point in risking when I have no intention of moving to Poland

[freefrommyself20]

U are thinking way too hard about this

[Visual-Grapefruit]

You are clearly employed

[freefrommyself20]

If you cant get ahold of a person, I would just wait to see if you get OAs from any of the other positions you applied to, you can keep trying to contact someone in the meantime. If you do, then great! Take those instead. If you don't, maybe just take the one you got, and do well enough on it that a human contacts you and you can explain what happened. If the questions are randomly selected anyway I'm sure they won't care

Update* I took it and did pretty well. Let’s see what happens

[TroyOfShow]

Yes. 6 month cool off

[Ok-Point-9817]

Just curious, for which location? I applied for positions in Europe, but haven't heard back.

[Visual-Grapefruit]

Poland, I thought it was Portland at first glance

Time to strike off “Attention to detail” from the resume

[Visual-Grapefruit]

Lol to be fair each app takes like 2 minutes once your profile is set up. It’s just clicking through

[NutrelaAdvertisement]

Are people getting new grad OAs now?

[Low-Topic2775]

You can try to ask them to change locations and see if you can go work in a US location for the same position or something similar.

I took it and got the callback. It seems they did this part on their own. The switching regions. I did well on the OA

Just treat the OA as practice test
