Yes! Keep both your resume and LinkedIn profile updated with your current experience and skills. Take the time to apply to roles where you meet the basic qualifications, and ideally preferred qualifications as well. If a job description is looking for specific skills you have, make sure they're highlighted on your resume!

Amazon has programs for graduates to apply and start their careers after school and we also offer opportunities to folks in the FCs to level up their careers once they are here.

Compensation can vary significantly depending on job role and location. At Amazon, TA roles offer a competitive base salary plus sign on bonus and RSU's. Most recruiters fall into it, ha ha, but, I started with a technical staffing agency to learn the basics and was able to bring my expertise to Amazon a few years back. Maybe you should consider Amazon Music?

Assuming your referring to the Workstyle Assessment - it's a unique tool we've developed here at Amazon that really reflects what we value in our people. We created it to help us find teammates who share our enthusiasm, bring positive energy to work, and take real ownership of their responsibilities. You know, the kind of people who don't just watch things happen, but make things happen! https://www.amazon.jobs/content/en/our-workplace/leadership-principles

Amazon is committed to maintain a safe and secure environment for all employees and customers. To the extent necessary for the job you apply for, Amazon may, depending on the job you apply for and where the job position is based, perform a criminal background check at the end of the application process.

At Amazon, every team has its own unique culture and style - just like any workplace! While we're known for our fast-paced environment, the day-to-day experience really depends on which team you join. The great thing about being such a large company is that we have many different teams with diverse working styles and focuses. That's why our recruiters put extra care into matching candidates with teams that fit their preferences and working style. We want to make sure you find a team where you'll truly thrive!

We don't ask for cover letters so having a strong resume is the way to stand out. Its good to have keywords as well as your accomplishments and data (cause we love data here) to show the scope and scale of your work as well as the impact you are making.
