Amazon NYC or Boston Recruiters

Hi Blind, I was wondering if there are any Amazon recruiters in NYC or Boston that can help me out I got an offer for a new grad position (Spring 2020) SDE in Seattle, but wouldn’t want to move or relocate too far due to family. I was wondering if I could change the location. NYC would be ideal for me, but Boston works as well. Thank you

Have you spoken with the recruiter that you worked with?

I am not sure if I have a specific recruiter that I am working with. I have been replying to the email that I got the offer from which doesn’t seem to be an email of a specific person.

How did you get this process/offer without any recruiter involvement? That seems unusual. Do you have a contact for the hiring manager then?

If you have an offer talk to your recruiter. Nobody from Boston /NYC will work with you because you're part of Student Programs and irrelevant in the eyes of industry roles. Sorry boss but it's the truth.

Out of curiosity, is going into Amazon under the Student Programs harder than the industry roles? What's the typical difference between the two besides the years of experience?
