Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #943
Well, if we need more proof of how well Amazon is doing during this global pandemic, get this.
Amazon has recently said they’ve announced they’ve posted that they are looking to hire an additional 100,000 people across Canada and the US.
If that doesn’t say that they’re doing well then I don’t know what does.
Now, interestingly, of course, out of those jobs, there is a huge number of those that are specifically geared towards Alexa.
In fact, there are over 1100 jobs that have to do with Alexa.
I’ll just run through a few of these categories because if you’re looking for a job and you’ve got some of those skills that would be helpful to Amazon.
Then you may find a really great job here, there are 111 jobs related to Alexa AI, 46 related to Alexa AI engineering, 18 for Alexa Auto, 29 for Alexa communications, 56 for Alexa data services, 56 for Alexa data, and developer technologies.
48 for Alexa Entertainment, 34 for Alexa experience, 77 for experiences and devices, 16 for household organization, 55 for Alexa information, 34 for Alexa international, 43 for Alexa mobile interesting that one.
Then you may find a really great job here
20 Alexa search, 189 for Alexa shopping shows you perhaps where there’s some priority being placed by Amazon, 43 for the Alexa skills team almost done, 55 for the Alexa Smart Home, 3 for the Alexa Smart Home cameras, 86 for Alexa speech, and finally 41 for Alexa voice services.
So if you are interested in any of those areas, then you might want to check out the website, you would go to Amazon.jobs and you can check out all of their listings there.
What I plan to do over the next little while is take a little bit of a deep dive into the jobs that are specifically available in Canada.
Because that’s interesting for about job perspective, but also, I’m curious to see if this will give us a hint as to which features Amazon is more likely to be bringing to Canada sooner rather than later if they’re putting priority on that.
So I’ll report back to you next week about that and until then, have a great weekend, talk to you soon.
