Just started at amazon and working my butt off! My area managers told me I already work at the level of their employees who've been working there for 6 months! Gotta keep the grind 💪 thanks for the info my man and keep the grind 💯

Aayye there you go!! Good stuff fam that’s what I’m talking about! Keep leveling my dude! 🤞🏾📈

[@TPJ22]

I also became a PA in 6-7 months I didn’t even become a learning ambassador just straight went into the jump… that was due to my manager pushing me super hard as a tier 1… what really made me stand out was running a whole floor without any PAs the entire week OB dock flats… and I might’ve not hit the quota but my numbers improved each day that week

[@TPJ22]

That’s when I made a name for myself as well as executing as a PA during peak this past one

[@S.B.]

Ayeee!!! 6-7 months? Congrats on level up Jorge!! And didn’t even do ambassador, nice. And yea once you start running things by yourself that’s where you get a lot of growth💪🏾 let’s keep leveling up📈

[@TPJ22]

@@S.B. if I’m honest when I applied for learning ambassador and didn’t get it I was a bit salty… I mean I might’ve not had the vest long, but would’ve been dope to have it to keep it as a shrine… definitely as a pa makes me more hungry to develop people and help them level up!

[@S.B.]

And you still came up without it! Sometimes moments like those make us go even harder, glad you let it make you better and not bitter 🤞🏾🚀

You definitely should! In the last part of the video I touch on the topic if you feel your AM does not have you in mind for the position you can still be a PA in another area that’s how it happens most of the time.

Hello Jay - I have an interview for a PA spot via chime in three days. Can you give me any tips on what the interview questions will be surrounding. Thank you very much.

[@Jay4jingle]

@@jsegura525 Hello there!…I will tell you that I use S.T.A.R techniques to answer the interview questions. S-Situation T- Task A - Action R - Result Most of the questions will have to do with what you’ve done with your experiences. For example Q: Please tell me the time that you encounter a difficult situation and how do work through it. So you use the S.T.A.R technique to answer… First to come up with a Situation of what happened, then talk about Task that you have to do in that situation, then the Action basically what did you do, and then tell them the Result. I hope this will help you out!…..good luck I’m cheering for you. FYI…they can also ask you about the time that you fail at work or in life!…same thing just use the S.T.A.R technique OK?

[@DayzahVoo]

there are huge difference here that were not noted and you may not experience in. UTR PA, FC PA, RTS PA, OTR PA. Ive done 3/4 of them all of them except UTR PA. OTR PA has been my favorite by far....the amount on tech knowledge i have gained i have been able to build excels that are utilized in 10+ stations in the U.S, are you in AMZL Process Assistants, AMZL RTS, or ORSA or even the MEMES chimes rooms their nationwide if not hit me up on chime brotha -"nuzum"

[@Thee-_-Outlier]

does any particular department give an advantage towards promotion to tier 3+?? I'm brand new, day three was yesterday. I am doing ICQA simple bin count. In talking to my AM I learned he has been at amazon since '98, so he is an OG, he seems cool also. he already asked me, and I assume the other new hires, what roles I'm interested in pursuing at amazon. I thought that was a good thing for an area manager to ask new employees. Anyway, I'm basically wondering if I'm in a decent spot advancement wise since I personally don't mind the monotony of counting bins all night. However, if ICQA is a dead end to advancement I'd like to know so I can cross train ASAP. I'm 47 and have over 10 years experience running a computer repair shop and an associates programming degree, I left my 4year university to start working before I got a bachelor degree tho. I just don't want to work in tech anymore, so I'm starting over at amazon basically. As for my goals, I would like to be a PA or above at amazon ASAP. Ik I have to pay my dues and wait 1-2 years if need be but like I said I wanna make sure ICQA is a good path since I don't see anyone talking about it on Reddit or KZbin. It's as if nobody does bin count lol. Is that because it's a shit role??? Side note:. If I stay in ICQA i think for tier 2 I'd like to do Amnesty on the robot floor which Ik is a path in ICQA, but I don't see how that role would lead anywhere even tho I think working the robot floor would be fun lol, my tech nerd side likes robots ig

[@S.B.]

Honestly I don’t think so only reason I might think stow or lack is because those are bigger departments that need more PA’s but other than that I don’t see any advantage. Congrats on your growth so far Daniel! Keep elevating 🤞🏾📈

I was lucky and started on a building opening day. They selected ambassadors two weeks in and and I was one of the first one picked. This allowed me to make connections with all of the area managers and op managers. I also trained and had connections with all the hires so about 3 months in i got an interview and got that inclined status and was made a pa a week later.

[@RodrigoAReyes95]

PA is absolutely not worth it, go for TOM team or even better RME, get into the MRA program, when you finish you can make over $35 an hour, which is more than $10 more than PAs will ever make, I see them running around stressed out for their numbers and we are waiting for calls, RME is not perfect but is waaaay better than a role in operations.

I agree I worked for Amazon 5 years worked my way up to Area Manager, got a new site lead horrible manager brought awful culture with them and because I did not agree with how she treated and wanted to make people do things got fired 3 months after she took over, claimed my performance was why I was being fired. I filed complaints but that does not help if HR is telling site lead everything and disregarding what every manager is saying. All in all no longer with Amazon but much happier as those 3 months were the worst billing and belittling experience I ever had.

Yes, I have spoken to Operations and LA trainer about it. Basically, there is some things going on that I find is not right aka favoritism/bsing.

[@Monroestevens306]

Good that you are about using your brain. And how you don’t plan on making Amazon a career. I am sorry but $2 about minimum wage is still nothings. And the extra incentives are manipulation. 1 or 2 more dollars for graveyard shifts is a joke. The emotional, physical, and psychological stress of working those hours are not worth it. (For literal pennies) I don’t get why people get so excited about low paying jobs. In order to live a decent life today in the U.S (with inflation). People would have to make a minimum of 30 dollars an hour. For a single person. For most of the warehouse jobs I have. I can see why now as I age. Most of the people in warehouses I’ve spoken to. They’ve fallen into lives biggest financial traps. (They all have 1 or more kids) 😅 So I guess those extra pennies do mean a lot.

[@andrewarter1690]

I have one of the top rates in pack. I have been at amazon for just under 4 months. My regional manager just approached me and subtley told me to apply for Learning ambassador. He told me no raise with it but said it would look good on a resume. I think he was suggesting I go for PA. Im already the guy the new people come to with any and all work related questions. They recently hired a PA from outside amazon they introduced to me personally and told him if he has any questions or needs help come to me. So now I have to decide do I chase the amazon career path? I was just testing the waters and have not put much thought into rising the ranks. All the PA's and pg like me because wherever they send me, I will either fix or catch up that area. I think I could quickly become a PA, but I also think that might be false self faith.

[@S.B.]

Yeap under 4 months and already having people come up to you to go for it is always a great sign, and def. I would try to go for the PA position why not? It's definitely possible and it's not hard at all there will be some obstacles but keep and positive and motived mindset and you'll get to the destination.

[@frankiej3568]

I got offered a PA position in a different building not far from where I'm working now. The thing is, they only offer you a 0.50 cent an hour raise. And with all the added responsibilities and stress, it doesn't seem worth it to start at a new building for a measly 0.50 cent raise. Besides, with the extra pay we get for some VET shifts, I would probably make more staying where I am as a regular associate. They need to give you more of a raise for the PA position! It doesn't give you much incentive.

Congrats on that friend! And I have a few different videos I’ve done on that subject on my page check em out. You did step number 1, make them aware that you want to move up believe it or not most don’t do that.

[@xciv808]

When they say flex down shift do you have to clock out at that time or can you stay behind to do some work till your original time to get off?

[@S.B.]

I'm not sure on that one, I would run that pass HR to have a for sure answer.

[@CeceDeAnn]

13:34 idk why but that was funny😂😂😂😂 Also sorry if I missed it but do you have a bachelors degree? Or do you know if it is possible with no degree? I have tons of management experience in previous jobs but no degree (currently in school)

[@S.B.]

Hahaha glad you enjoyed it! And if you don’t have one you have to have 2years at Amazon

[@chrisroberts8067]

I like my site because the culture is different because it’s more like footwear and apparel.They stress more qualify.

Nice! Always good when you enjoy your site!

[@quentinwolff1787]

Lol been tryna train for pg and become a pa but been getting the run around I’m the #1 picker in the fc,,

[@S.B.]

Yeaaa I hate when they do that, the only thing to really do in that situation is ask them the next steps for you to take then do it and hold them to it and go back once they say what ever it is they told you. Or just go for ambassador and once PA opens for your building and others start to apply.

[@loribott6119]

Wait, we get $1.50 extra for night and if you work both weekend nights, you get .50 cent more. 🤔 I am at delivery center.

[@S.B.]

That's at a FC I'm not sure if its a shift differencal on the delivery side but I think it should be ask your AM they can give you the for sure answer.

I wonder why the PAs always pull associates around ?

If you mean like pull off their work stations? Could be plenty of reasons which would vary by department.

[@shivit3877]

Hey!! Please reply to my query as I m working in Amazon,India can I apply internally through job insider portal???

[@S.B.]

Yeap you can as long as they have a position open.

[@jazzyapplesauceyeah9596]

What makes your application stand out when applying because I’m going on 5 years at Amazon. I’ve applied for the pa positions 3 different years ima row and haven’t been chosen for an interview.

[@S.B.]

Well I know Amazon doesn’t really care about past work history before them so keep that short, they also like seeing numbers. If your pretty cool with any AMs ask them if you can have 10mins of the time when they are free and that should be more than enough time for them to give you some things to put on your resume.

[@boppiek]

I’ve been working at Amazon for 3 years coming November 2nd. I’m quite and stay out the way here. But I am their number 1 top stower ( my highest being 425) our building transfer to a new building so we lost a lot of people & lately I’ve been getting recognition From managers because of my performance & was even told to put in for a learning ambassador & would be considered during their meeting so I can work my way up to a PA. They now have seasonal PA position available. I just applied. I’m scared due to the fact I have social anxiety but I’m trying to come out my shell and do something differently this year at Amazon. Fingers crossed

[@boppiek]

Oh and I’m literally trained in about everything in Amazon. If not I’m a easy learner (max 3 weeks to learn)

[@S.B.]

No need to be scared at all you got this!! Congrats in advance!! Keep leveling up!

[@willc2377]

Any tips on your PA resume that landed a interview?

[@S.B.]

Try to use metrics that back up your stories, they love numbers.

I was looking into the Amazon strike and I saw your channel.. I'm pretty sure you're probably happy where you're at but I'm telling you man.. I've been at Costco for 26 years now and you would be perfect fit over there.. we got great benefits and I could see you being a supervisor probably as little as a year and probably a manager a couple years after that.. making at least 100 grand or more.. especially since you want to use your brain more than your bronze.. Costco likes those type of employees...lol... nevertheless take care my man... Keep up the good work 👍

Do you know anything about the more tech focused positions like RME? I heard a good route is to try to get into icqa then amnesty, than try for rme. Is getting into icqa hard? I start next at amazon next month! Also great video, thanks for the tips!

[@S.B.]

RME gets PAID lol, I know they make way more at their entry level than the warehouse workers and managers (unless your a ops manager or higher) most of the RME I've encountered seem to enjoy it and said it wasn't difficult at all. As soon as you get there tell them your interested in it and they'll give you the direction to go its different for everybody. And thank you for the support!
