Amazon recruiters ghost me or say not eligible yet

I interviewed with Amazon on may 4th. Since then I talked with few recruiters like 3-4 months later who advised me to wait a year from then. One said that it's 6 month and asked for my email and didn't reply after that. I talked with another one she said that her specific team (Amazon advertising) needs a year to recycle. Am I tagged as no recycle?

I've heard it's one year best to wait until next may

Sounds like you were rejected Anything under 24 months requires BR approval so nobody really wants to work with you because you probably want L6 comp but dont raise the bar and most recruiters would waste their time trying to fit a square into a round hole.

How about being asked to apply any other open position right after onsite interview, not offered for the position applied? I applied for L7 and HR told me it will be not a full interview process for the new positions within 6 month after the onsite.

A modified loop within 6 months usually means you were inclined but something happened to that role. Either it was cancelled, filled internally, or a downlevel, but the team determined you were a cultural fit and the Bar Raiser agreed. Usually within 6 months a modified loop can be approved since you already met with a BR and covered 6-8 LPs. The only thing needed is for you to meet with the new hiring manager and maybe 1 or 2 teammates for a team fit evaluation.
