I have previous experience in a similar industry but I also got into Amazon as a new grad last year. I could have probably applied regularly, and this decision probably hurt my TC (especially since I found out I could not negotiate new grad TC), but I figured since transitioning industries the interviews might be easier for new grad. I joined right before the pay bands were adjusted, and curious if it would be better career/TC wise to stay for like 1-2 years to gain experience or just LC and transition on.
