Yes, perhaps I should have clarified. BR can only use the veto to make a HIRE to NO_HIRE decision. He doesn't have the veto to make a NO_HIRE to HIRE decision.

- amzn-throw 5y agoNot quite. Source: Am bar raiser. While bar raisers can't make hiring managers take a candidate they don't want, they can absolutely "veto to hire" for Amazon. It just means that Recruiting needs to find another team, which the candidate is not guaranteed to be interested in. And that team's manager will also want to interview the candidate, so an offer is not guaranteed again.
- blackoil 5y agoIn other words, you can recommend recruiter to see if any other team wants to hire the candidate. Which makes sense from perspective of all. But you can't "veto" to hire which makes no sense.
- northern-lights 5y agoYes, agreed. I meant BR can't veto to hire for that team without HM being inclined.
- blackoil 5y agoi.e. without a collusion in people across teams "Hire to Fire" will not work. and for the problem to be systemic, collusion should be happening between thousands of people. What I think is more likely is that managers are ready to take 90% candidates with hope of grooming them because they have a fallback if it was a wrong decision. Which is a positive thing in my 2c opinion.
