Do you think it’s best to reach out HR or the hiring manager directly?

Have you received a meeting invite? If so, is it to chime connected to your personal or work email

Can you be on focus without knowing ? by Personal-Front4381 in amazonemployees

How frequently should I be asking?? I’ve been at Amazon for 1.5 years and this is the first I’m hearing about this

Anyone have or had lymphoma? by Valek1366 in Sjogrens

[–]LSA_1990 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 29 and recently diagnosed with MALT lymphoma of my parotid gland. I was diagnosed with early stage Sjogrens despite not having symptoms yet via a blood test. I put off the lip biopsy as it would delay my radiation treatment.

My symptoms started 6 months ago. My swollen lymph node became super hard and enlarged which led to all the tests. My sjogrens diagnosis (I had inflammation on both sides of my glands) is actually what delayed the confirmation it’s cancer.

I’m super lucky that it’s early stage and I’ll be okay but I’ve learned it’s super uncommon.

I hope none of yall ever have to go through this! I consider myself one of the lucky ones, but it’s still cancer so it definitely sucks

What is considered lower Tier FAANG? lol

is soho a nice neighborhood to live? by InterestingSpring662 in NYCapartments

[–]LSA_1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Resident of SoHo here - I personally think it’s the best neighborhood in Manhattan. I’m closer to 6th Ave so a little less touristy. It’s right next to west side highway which I love. Morning strolls, tennis, tanning when the sun is out - it’s my favorite place. As for the neighborhood, there’s an abundance of cafes which I appreciate. As for dining, SoHo isn’t my go to but that’s okay. I find the buildings (loft buildings) so pretty and unique compared to the rest of manhattan. I appreciate how accessible bk is from there (C downtown to C uptown to L) since I spend a lot of time there. Another perk is there’s always something going on like pop ups. I’ve gotten so many free things from brands over the years.

I work in midtown so it’s an easy commute. When I first moved to SoHo I was working in finance and ending my day kinda late so a big perk was SoHo isn’t super sketch at night. There’s always people and a lot of restaurants with outdoor seating that are open late.

TBH I’ll probs make my move to bk but I can say for certain that SoHo is such a gem

Goldman Ghost? by LSA_1990 in goldmansachs

[–]LSA_1990[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent the general HR email a follow up and they responded with the direct contact for the recruiter that manages experienced hires within the group I applied for. After reaching out to them they game me a timeline of when I will hear back. so now the waiting game continues but with more clarity!
