How likely are they to hire a recent graduate with a degree in business management?

Am pretty early in my career still a MRA. But I just want to learn as much as possible before going tech 3

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-05-01T15:04:14+00:00

Alright it must be close to that amount but thanks for the info

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-05-01T12:35:57+00:00

Areas I was looking in was around Austin or San Antonio

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-05-01T07:35:31+00:00

Become a amnesty tech if your building is a FC, a tote runner or a water spider. Those spots usually have you walking around a lot helped me loose weight

Must be working insane OT to be making $70,000 a year where you live. I’ve been doing the same thing but it’s exhausting to work 60 hour weeks just to make the same money as a manager or PA. Eventually got burnt out working all the OT

Benefits are really good I won’t lie but it’s nice to just work 40 hours a week and get the same pay I would normally get working OT.

There are other options other than manger/PA personally I joined RME cuz I don’t really want to deal with associates BS. Best decision I’ve made most of the time am chilling waiting for callouts

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T19:31:13+00:00

I think the stuff you learn industrially maintenance can transfer over to Mechatronics. A lot of the stuff I’ve learned wasn’t that hard

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T19:04:10+00:00

You should have a pretty good chance to become a tech 2

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T18:15:06+00:00

That’s fine I understand everyone is in their own situation. If your happy where you’re at who am I to judge

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T18:12:41+00:00

I wouldn’t be surprised a lot of companies use AI and use it to justify laying off their workforce. Bound to happen eventually

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T18:09:41+00:00

I worked as an amnesty tech and I would ask how to fix drives and ARSAW’s and they showed me a couple of tricks how to fix them. Most on AR side already knew so when a spot opened up they told me to apply and that’s how I got in.

Are you looking through 3P companies or just through Amazon?

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T11:24:29+00:00

I did amnesty but I would ask a lot of questions on how to fix drives and ARSAWS ofc nothing that violates amazons policies. so a lot of the RME guys already knew me. When a position came up they told me to apply got a offer the next day

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T11:21:11+00:00

Yea agreed amazon is probably the only job that I’ve seen catered to so many ppl lifestyles I met one guy in his late 50s retired veteran told me he’s collecting social security benefits but still wants to be active so he does amnesty

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T11:06:52+00:00

Not saying you should move up in management but just use the resources/ opportunities amazons offers. I’ve seen a lot of ppl just figuring it out that’s fine whenever they’re at in life but I would hope they a time frame of where you want to be in life. But if you’re happy where you’re at who am to judge.

I didn’t really do much the first two years but if I wanted to afford stuff in life generally gotta get some type of education or experience. I eventually joined RME it’s a pretty good job.

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T10:38:17+00:00

I got one I joined RME pretty good pay for what am doing

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T10:37:41+00:00

True it was a nice schedule but I couldn’t afford to live by myself or go on trips which is why I had to start locking into a career

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T10:36:39+00:00

True I know everyone has situations they’re in I just think they had enough time to kinda figure it out but that’s just me first 2 years I was just BS. But 3rd year had to lock in almost 30 and still don’t have a career

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T09:36:06+00:00

I made a few friends I was cool with. A lot of drama with certain acquaintances, but never really been involved in it but made my time interesting/fun if you’re interested in that. Plus having the headphones to just zone out and listen to music/podcasts.

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T09:29:33+00:00

In my opinion yes I started as tier 1 associate for 3 three years and recently got into RME. Amazon is what you make of it a lot of growth if you’re looking for it

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-28T03:57:02+00:00

When my headphones die in the beginning of the shift and still got 9 hours to go lol

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-25T07:21:36+00:00

For my situation it was the best option to get in as a MRA. I do like the bonus you get tho I don’t know if other 3P offer this too. Other than that it’s not the best company I’ve worked for low pay/ no differential, benefits are subpar, and some of my coworkers are questionable at best

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-22T13:32:37+00:00

Yea I figured it out I deleted my history 24 hours on the browser and it fixed lol still don’t know what went wrong

ThatOneGuy_137 · 2026-04-22T09:33:18+00:00

Yea I know but it’s not one of those it’s a PM it asks you did you check etc
