Mass email from Amazon recruiter

What do you guys think of this email I just got? "Hi gilbobaggi, Happy Thursday! I hope you and your loved ones are staying healthy at this interesting time. I am reaching out because our Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) Team is hosting Remote Interviews May 11th through 13th for Software Development Engineering opportunities in our Toronto office and I’d love to see if you might be interested!" ... A bunch of jargon about the opportunity "If you are interested in participating in these interviews, please let me know, your invitation is contingent on successfully completing an online coding assessment beforehand." Any tips on how to approach this? Any referrals? I only just started at my current company two months ago. Its very boring work but stable with good people. I wouldnt mind something more challenging (and better paid). Should I get my LC chops back up and try to make this happen? Location: Toronto TC: 79K CAD YOE: <1 #amazon

Do it and if you don’t like their offer just decline? You don’t lose anything since it’s remote interview

I always ignore them.

Why would you need a referral if the recruiter is offering an interview

Do the online assessment and see if you pass. It's not difficult anyway.
