Man, can you imagine what it must be like to be a recruiter for Amazon?

I def can. No one is hiring this is a layoff. If you're a recruiter and still there you're keeping your mouth shut, pretending to work in something and showing up threevdays a week

How so?

This measure is probably aimed towards their AWS staff or related personnel. Recruiters for those types of spots are going to have a hard time finding good/qualified people for those kinds of jobs. So what should be a normally slam dunk job (Amazon Tech Recruiter) is likely going to be much harder. Plus... you know those recruiters now have to show up to the office 3x a week so there's that too.

That makes more sense. I didn't understand the person I was replying to. Whether they meant it would be easier or harder.

It's employee hostile so their job is almost impossible.

Every employee should hold the line - if they fire you all they're fucked.
