What role are you joining as?
Can’t really comment on what the recruiter said.
But the promotion would take sometime. Say 1 to 2 years. It can be even lesser, if you are meeting/exceeding all the guidelines of the current level and also meeting some of the moving to next level guideline as well. [say you are hired at L5, and your next level would be L6]
For any promotion, your manager would write a promotion doc of what work you have demonstrated in your tenure against the guidelines with its impact. Another important factor is feedback from stakeholders whom you have worked and if they are supportive of the promotion. [basically, earn the trust with all the stakeholders/leadership you work with, and display high ownership and bias for action along with other LPs]
At Amazon you will own the Promotion by your deliverables and goals you take. Do keep in mind, to be a role model for most of the LPs. It will take sometime, but eventually with your work and commitments you shall be there.
Good luck.
Thankyou very much for the information. I am joining at L4 , Learning Coordinator, Non tech.
Your recruiter is correct about appraisal cycle
If you join after September 2022 you will have appraisal in April 2024
And if you joined before that, let's say July, you will have appraisal in April 2023 (with pro rata based hike)
July will be good from appraisal and OLR point of view
OLR means organization leadership review
As far as promotion related thing goes, your recruiter is wrong...there are no definite timelines of promotion...once you are ready, they will promote you
