For amazon, the move it not to apply formally through the internal jobs site. Clicking apply will notify your manager instantly.
So the accepted practice is to connect directly with the HM for a chat/pre-interview and once they say they are inclined (barring unexpected info), click apply. This is fairly common and expected.
- snakedoctor 5y agoYeah it pings your manager whenever you apply internally. That is an interesting work around. You can see HM/Sourcer/Recruiter for any roles internally. Then just get their contact information via Phone tool.
- taabcd 5y agosteps: 1) chime or slack them asking to setup a 30 minute sync about the role. 2) see what they want and if "apply"ing makes sense. If not, figure out your gaps. Do this 5ish times. See where the gaps are. Work to fill them. oh and get on blind so you can learn from other people's mistakes :)
- Clewza313 5y agoThis is typical for internal transfers in large companies, pressing Apply is (almost) the last step. From the other side of equation as a hiring manager, it's a small negative signal if somebody internal applies "cold", the good candidates tend to reach out first.
