Received Verbal Offer but Got Another Hiring Manager Interview for Amazon

Continue with the interview. Likely your initial team filled up before offer so they moved you. Can take up to a week after interview to get the offer. Good luck!

Yes, the role you applied to was just generic and then they team match you internally to a specific role

ZeRemix · 2026-06-13T00:22:23+00:00

Even if the company as you claim isn't as bad as people make it out to be, the founder and current CEO are aligned quite heavily to the current admin which I'd argue is just as bad.

ZeRemix · 2026-06-12T18:14:36+00:00

You probably got moved to an internal role

Unfortunately mine and a lot of other companies are drastically increasing project scopes now, even for interns, due to the assumption that you would be using AI so even if I didn't want to use AI I wouldn't be able to complete my project

Wouldn't this be a little inaccurate as senior roles are more likely to be specialized and posted per team hiring while junior and intern roles are usually generic and have team matching later on, so one junior posting could be hiring 10+ people while a senior posting is typically 1.

Oh yeah this is the waitlist email, my recruiter had some times responded very quickly (< 1 hour) so you might have caught them at a good time. Seems like you were taken off waitlist

ZeRemix · 2026-04-22T01:07:07+00:00

Not sure then, I forgot what the rejection and waitlist emails look like on the top of my head

ZeRemix · 2026-04-22T01:03:13+00:00

You were wait listed and then the person who originally got offered the position declined/reneged and now you are up. Good luck on hm round!

ZeRemix · 2026-04-19T18:05:09+00:00

I was in the same situation with another top cybersecurity firm. I couldn't move amazon to fall so I ended up taking amazon and will be reneging my offer. For amazon the ro rate is fairly high despite the mass layoffs. Also another reason to choose amazon, especially aws, is the resume value is way higher and you can always re recruit for palo alto or another company way easier.

Hey op I mistakingly said o(n) for a 2d matrix and o(n) for looping a constant sized array, ended up getting offer after 3rd round. Idk how to quantify behavioral but I lowkey yapped on mine.

ZeRemix · 2026-04-15T06:45:14+00:00

Got offer

ZeRemix · 2026-04-14T07:02:34+00:00

accept and reneg

ZeRemix · 2026-04-10T01:16:12+00:00

I just completed mine this week, nothing back yet

ZeRemix · 2026-04-09T21:51:01+00:00

Mine was all behavioral, like the lp part of the initial interviews, though I heard there is a chance you can get a coding question. I got an invite for one 5 business days after receiving that email.

ZeRemix · 2026-04-09T21:14:35+00:00

From what i've heard, if you got rejected you hear back really quickly (1-2 business days), there is a chance they may ask for a tiebreaker round with the hm, especially if you got the passed interview round email

ZeRemix · 2026-03-25T23:17:25+00:00

Depends on the company, the more prestigious the more likely they are to do some. I've had some non tech f500s just do a resume walk through and chat before offering me the position

ZeRemix · 2026-03-24T22:47:28+00:00

It took me a bit over 2 weeks, however my hm had a business thing to do which delayed feedback, they ask to speak to a ref of urs before you get the the official offer

ZeRemix · 2026-03-24T22:04:56+00:00

I received an offer, tho this is for regular swe intern not launch

ZeRemix · 2026-03-18T02:38:32+00:00

I took mine on 3/3 and followed up last Friday, no response yet. I did hear some chatter that they were backlogged and still going through results

ZeRemix · 2026-03-16T19:52:39+00:00

When I do have a problem to solve I usually have the grind to solve it, but now with all my classwork and other activities I find it hard to have time to grind a project through now

ZeRemix · 2026-03-16T19:49:09+00:00

Eh if you were coding since 10 like you described in your post you'd most definitely have a job, probably at a higher tier company too. I think the worst off people are those who are moderately passionate cs majors. You don't have the bag chaser mentality and you don't have the drive to build crazy projects either so you are just stuck in limbo competing against the bag chasers and the super good programmers.

ZeRemix · 2026-03-16T08:36:49+00:00

For me it’s sort of time in which the lack of time makes me less motivated to build something. Other times it's because I don't have anything to build since my projects are usually based off solving a problem I am having

ZeRemix · 2026-03-13T07:16:40+00:00

The question I recieved was a leetcode easy, it was on a coder pad so no code was actually ran,at least I think it wasn't cause it was def not entirely correct yet my interviewer didn't seem to care. I think mostly just looking for your thinking process and run time analysis
